Abstract

A new scientific-technological concept of the utilization of wine and distillery wastes is proposed. The results of complex research are given, related to the effect of biologically active substances (BAS) on biomethane and biohydrogen emission from the distillery wastes. It was shown that the test substances can provide a 3−4 times increase in fermentation efficiency, enhance the methane contents in biogas up to 90−95 % and activate the dehydrogenase thus stimulating the biochemical process. The kinetic indicators of processes and mechanism of BAS effect on anaerobic fermentation are discussed.
