Abstract
The various equations of hydrolysis kinetics included into the general ized simulation model (METHANE) were tested on the anaerobic digestion of cellulose, sludge, and cattle manure. The good agreement between t he model simulation results and experimental data was obtained. The Co ntois equation, taking into account a hydrolytic biomass, and the firs t-order equation with respect to the particulate substrate only, were shown to be the approximations of two-phase hydrolysis kinetics.
