Catalysts improve biogas production in several ways:
Increased Reaction Rates: Catalysts lower the activation energy required for the breakdown of organic matter, thereby increasing the reaction rate and biogas yield. Enhanced Substrate Utilization: Catalysts ensure that a higher percentage of the substrate is converted into biogas, reducing waste and improving efficiency. Stabilization of the Digestion Process: By promoting specific reactions, catalysts can help stabilize the anaerobic digestion process, making it more reliable and consistent.
