Figure 5.6 Stages of Anaerobic Digestion Process
Hydrolysis is the process of solving insoluble
organics large and complex to small molecules that can be
delivered to the microbial cells and can be metabolized
(Thompson, 2008). Hydrolysis process can be done
enzymatically convert complex organic suspended
dissolved into simple organic that can be used by bacteria
(Thompson, 2008).
Acidification of the complex phase which involves
the formation of acid, hydrogen production, and stage
acetogenic. Sugar, long chain fatty acids and amino acids
formed from hydrolysis is used as a substrate. Organic
acids with low molecular weight resulting from
acidogenesis stage will be parsed into methane (CH4) and
CO2 by bacteria methanogenic. Biogas as by product of
decomposition of organic matter has been considered as
an alternative energy source. The composition of biogas is
