PROCESS FOR THE ANAEROBIC DIFFERENTIAL COBIODEGRADATION OF A CELLULOSIC SUBSTRATE AND A SUBSTRATE SUITABLE FOR FERMENTATION, AND APPARATUS FOR CARRYING OUT SAID METHOD

摘要

IS INTRODUCED, BY SUCCESSIVE LOADS, IN THE SUPPLY ZONE 15 OF A FERMENTER 2, THE CELLULOSIC SUBSTRATE IN THE COMPRESSED STATE; A QUANTITY OF THE SUBSTRATE CLEAN FOR ANAEROBIC FERMENTATION IS CONTINUOUSLY INTRODUCED INTO ZONE 15. THE WORKING MASS IS PROGRESSING TOWARDS EXTRACTION ZONE 17 OF THE FERMENTER FROM WHERE THE TWO DEGRADED SUBSTRATES ARE EXTRACTED. THE FORMED BIOGAS IS CONTINUOUSLY COLLECTED, PARTLY UPPER FROM THE FERMENTATION ZONE 16. THE ORIGINALITY OF THE PROCESS IS TO SUBJECT EACH LOAD OF THE CELLULOSIC SUBSTRATE, WHILE IT ENTERS ZONE 16, AN ADDITIONAL COMPRESSION WHICH CONDUCTS HAS AN INCREASE IN ITS DENSITY, WHICH HAS THE CONSEQUENCE OF INCREASING THE BACTERIA BINDING POTENTIAL. THE SUBSTRATE CLEAN FOR FERMENTATION CAN BE RECYCLED WITHOUT PUMPING MEANS; THE COMPRESSION OF A CELLULOSIC SUBSTRATE LOAD IN ACTUALLY CAUSES A RISE IN THE LEVEL OF THE SUBSTRATE SPECIFIC TO FERMENTATION IN ZONE 17 AT THE SAME TIME AS A DROP IN THIS LEVEL IN ZONE 15.
