Abstract:
      Using pig manure and wheat straw as fermenting materials, an experiment was carried out in a small self- manufactured biogas ferment device to study the influence of different inoculum densities on reactor start-up, pH-value, COD, biogas production and gas generation rate. The results showed that: microflora of methane and microflora of acid-producing in anaerobic system with a high inoculum concentration would be fast to achieve a balance to maintain pH-value of the system in a range which is conducive to the growth of methane bacteria. Under the condition of definite solids con-centration (6%), as the increase of inoculum density, COD removal rate, gas generation rate and biogas production. But when the treatment group inoculum concentration of material above 30% starts up at the same time, the increase of biogas production is unconspicuous. When the inoculum concentration of fermenting materials equals to 30%, the result is the best. At this time, it not only wastes no inoculation or operating cost, but also produces gas effectively.
