Abstract:
In this study is to verify the feasibility of the biogas yield potential of the wastes from banana manufacturing process and the feasibility of practical application through testing the fermentation performance of banana stalk and peel respectively at mesophilic temperature (35°C) under different concentration of fermentation. The research results indicated that the banana stalk and peel could be used as raw materials of anaerobic fermentation. The effect of gas production of low concentration of banana peel fermentation was the best and the biogas yield potential was 758 mL/g TS and 856 mL/g VS. But the fermentative broth acidified rapidly after the fermentation starting in high concentration of fermentation with banana peel. Therefore, the fermentation technology should be optimized during the practical application.

Key words:  Anaerobic fermentation, banana stalk, banana peel, biogas yield potential, mesophilic fermentation, ,
