| Abstract | Anaerobic digestion has become a promising technology in waste management by converting an organic waste into biogas. From the present study, the optimum food to microorganism ratio (F/M) in anaerobic biodegradation has been evaluated. Also, using the optimum F/M ratio, the batch test study was conducted in different phases and under different temperature conditions for anaerobic digestion of food waste. The data obtained from the study has been used to calculate the methane generation rate constant (k) and measurement of biochemical methane potential (BMP) in anaerobic biodegradation. During anaerobic digestion, food waste (with total solids content of 15–30 %) was loaded with the inoculum (seed sludge with total solids content of 10 %) in the serum bottles (working volume 400 mL) and was incubated under mesophilic temperature conditions of 30 ± 2 °C, thermophilic temperature condition of 50 ± 2 °C, and under psychrophilic condition of 15 ± 2 °C for 40, 30, and 60 days respectively, at F/M ratio of 0.75. Also, maximum methane production of 0.88, 0.62, and 0.73 L CH$_{4}$/g chemical oxygen demand (COD) was found under mesophilic, thermophilic, and psychrophilic conditions, respectively. At this maximum biogas production, the rate constant (k) was measured as 0.18, 0.23, and 0.10 days$^{−1}$, respectively. Also, the BMP was measured as 84, 74, and 70 % at mesophilic, thermophilic, and psychrophilic conditions for 40, 30, and 60 days, respectively. In this study, the maximum biogas production was obtained at mesophilic conditions at food to microorganism ratio 0.75. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
