Soil-Derived Inocula Enhance Methane Production and Counteract Common Process Failures During Anaerobic Digestion

Although soil-borne methanogens are known to be highly diverse and adapted to extreme environments, their application as potential (anaerobic) inocula to improve anaerobic digestion has not been investigated until now. The present study aimed at evaluating if soil-derived communities can be benefici...
