Comparative Analysis of Kinetic Models for Simulation of Biogas Production from Cow Dung and Fruit Waste via Anaerobic Digestion
Abstract: This study investigates the optimization of biogas and biofertilizer production from cow dung and fruit waste through anaerobic digestion, utilizing various microbial growth kinetic models. Simulations were conducted using the Monod, Moser, Contois, and Tessier models to predict biogas yield and assess model accuracy. Results indicated that the Tessier model provided the closest fit to experimental data, with a biogas yield of 0.45 m³/kg VS, while the Monod model overestimated …

Diversity of Agaricaceae (Basidiomycota: Agaricales) in Dharampur and Kaprada Taluka, Valsad District: A Taxonomic Study
Abstract: The fungal diversity of Dharampur and Kaprada Taluka in Valsad District, Gujarat, India, particularly within the Agaricaceae family, has been extensively studied. According to a standard reference text, the Agaricaceae contains 85 genera and 1340 species. Agaricaceae fungi, categorized as macrofungi, are prevalent in this region and are notably utilized by local tribal communities for culinary purposes due to their edibility. The life cycle of Agaricus is cyclic beginning with …
