4. Finally, methanogenic organisms c<strong>on</strong>sume the acetate, hydrogen, <str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g> some<br />
of the carb<strong>on</strong> dioxide to produce methane. Three biochemical pathways are<br />
used by methanogens to produce methane gas. (EPA., 2008)<br />
Figure 8.: Schematic diagram showing the main theoretical stages of the<br />
anaerobic digesti<strong>on</strong> process. (University of Strathclyde., 2009).<br />
Methanol is shown as the substrate for the methylotrophic pathway, although<br />
other methylated substrates can be c<strong>on</strong>verted. Sugars <str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g> sugar-c<strong>on</strong>taining<br />
polymers such as starch <str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g> cellulose yield <strong>on</strong>e mole of acetate per mole of<br />
sugar degraded. Since acetotrophic methanogenesis is the primary pathway<br />
used, theoretical yield calculati<strong>on</strong>s are often made using this pathway al<strong>on</strong>e.<br />
(EPA., 2008)<br />
Acetogenesis produces a quantity of hydrogen. According to (EPA., 2008) for<br />
every four moles of hydrogen c<strong>on</strong>sumed by hydrogenotrophic methanogens a<br />
mole of carb<strong>on</strong> dioxide is c<strong>on</strong>verted to methane. Substrates other than sugar,<br />
such as fats <str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g> proteins, can yield larger amounts of hydrogen leading to<br />
higher typical methane c<strong>on</strong>tent for these substrates. Furthermore, hydrogen<br />
<str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g> acetate can be biochemical substrates for a number of other products as<br />
well. Therefore, the overall biogas yield <str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g> methane c<strong>on</strong>tent will differ<br />
because of the diversity of substrates, biological c<strong>on</strong>sortia <str<strong>on</strong>g>and</str<strong>on</strong>g> digester<br />
c<strong>on</strong>diti<strong>on</strong>s. Typically, the methane c<strong>on</strong>tent of biogas ranges from 40-70 percent<br />
(by volume). (EPA., 2008)
