Abstract


Empirical kinetic models have been successfully applied to describe the anaerobic co-digestion kinetics of canna rhizome and cow manure for biogas production. A diverse range of models were fitted to experimental data collected from batch assays at various ratios. To select the most appropriate model for each ratio, the statistical metrics R² and RMSE were employed. Among all the models evaluated, the Weibull model demonstrated superior performance in predicting kinetic parameters across all ratios, exhibiting the highest R² value (0.9988) and the lowest RMSE (0.9746) at the optimal ratio of 50:50:200. The results obtained demonstrate that the co-digestion of these substrates is a promising pathway for bioenergy production, while valorizing agricultural residues. This study opens up interesting perspectives for the optimization of co-digestion processes and the energy transition.
