Comparative Study of Bio-digestion of Cassava Peelings and Efflu-ents from Gari Production in South-East Benin
Author(s): Thierry Godjo* and Albert Tchanou
The objective of the study was to compare the bio-digestion of peelings and effluents, by products of the transformation of cassava into gari in southern Benin. The experimental device was a Ficher block comprising the following seven treatments, all with the addition of 400 g of water: 1st treatment (T1) composed of 400 g of crushed cassava peelings; T2 composed of 300 g of peelings and 100 g of cow dung; T3 composed of 200 g of peelings and 200 g of cow dung; T4 composed of 400 g of effluent; T5 composed of 300 g of effluent and 100 g of cow dung; T6 composed of 200 g of effluent and 200 g of cow dung; T7 or control (T0 composed of 400 g of cow dung. The results showed that the biogas volume averages of the treatments T0, T1, T2, T3, T4, T5 and T6 were respectively of the order of 40.74 ml on the 25th day, 11.74 ml on the 33rd day, 13.48 ml on the 31..
