Soybean molasses for biogas production in an upscale and cost-effective anaerobic reactor: insights in metagenomic and metabolic pathways

Lab-scale studies demonstrated the potential of soybean molasses as substrate for anaerobic digestion and biogas production. This study performed the scale up of the biogas production from soybean molasses using pilot-scale anaerobic semi-batch reactor focusing on the development of a cost-effective process for implementation in soybean processing industries.
