Optimization of the Alkaline Pretreatment of Rice Straw for Enhanced Methane Yield
The lime pretreatment process for rice straw was optimized to enhance the biodegradation performance and increase biogas yield. The optimization was implemented using response surface methodology (RSM) and Box-Behnken experimental design. The effects of biodegradation, as well as the interactive eff...
