Résumé

Anaerobic digestion is one of the most promising options for the disposal of biodegradable food waste. However, the relatively high content of oil in food waste inhibits the conversion efficiency of anaerobic digestion because of the accumulation of long-chain fatty acids (LCFAs). In this study, activated anaerobic sludge was acclimated to accommodate high-oil conditions. The methane yield of high-oil food waste digested by the acclimated sludge increased by 24.9% compared to that digested by the raw sludge. To determine the internal changes in the acclimated sludge, the shifts in the microbial communities during the acclimation period were investigated via high-throughput sequencing (HTS) based on the 16 S rRNA gene. The results indicated that Bacteroidetes, Firmicutes, Chloroflexi and Proteobacteria were the dominant bacteria at the phylum level. The acclimation time allows some functional bacterial taxa to proliferate, such as Clostridium and Longilinea, which are able to degrade LCFAs and turn them into small organic molecules that also have nutrient value for other bacteria. Among the archaeal communities, the hydrogenotrophic methanogen Methanobacterium nearly supplanted the acetotrophic methanogen Methanosaeta. The time profiles of volatile fatty acids (VFAs) and pH during this period provided additional evidence for the success of the acclimation. This study demonstrated the effectiveness of acclimation and the dynamic of microbial communities, which further contributed to the management and resource utilization of high-oil food waste.
