Comparison of Initial pH Adjustment Prior to Thermophilic Anaerobic Digestion of Lime-Treated Corn Stover via Liquid Digestate or CO<sub>2</sub>
Neutralization with liquid digestate and CO<sub>2</sub> was compared herein to adjust the pH of lime-treated corn stover. The effects on the thermophilic (55 °C) anaerobic digestion were also analyzed. Liquid digestate neutralization (LDN) caused a decrease in pH from 10.5 to 7.5 in 60 h...
