Anaerobic Co-digestion: Principles and Guidelines Toward More Efficient Systems

Anaerobic Co-digestion: Principles and Guidelines Toward More Efficient Systems aims to provide comprehensive guidelines and insights for the planning, design, operation, and maintenance of anaerobic co-digestion systems. This manual equips engineering and design professionals, researchers, operations and maintenance staff, educators, and students with a detailed understanding of fundamental concepts and practical applications of anaerobic co-digestion.

WEF's peer-reviewed standards and other publications are intended to provide information through a review of technical practices and detailed procedures that research and experience have shown to be functional and practical. These peer-review standards and other publications are essential to helping water quality professionals enhance their skills, further their technical knowledge, and advance their careers in the circular water economy.
