BMP Bottle Setup Information

Description

Details on bottle contents and more from a gravimetric BMP test.

Usage

data("UQGravSetup")

Format

A data frame with 9 observations on the following variables.

id

identification code, a unique value for each bottle in the dataset. A factor.

descrip

description of substrate, a factor with levels Inoculum, Cellulose, Substrate C.

m.inoc

mass of inoculum added to the bottle at the start in g. Numeric.

m.sub

mass of substrate added to the bottle at the start in g. Numeric.

m.tot

total mass added to the bottle at the start in g. Numeric.

vol.hs

bottle headspace in mL. Numeric.

m.sub.vs

mass of volatile solids (VS) of substrate added to the bottle at the start in g. Numeric.

m.inoc.vs

mass of volatile solids (VS) of inoculum added to the bottle at the start in g. Numeric.

isr

VS-based inoculum-to-substrate ratio.

Details

These data are meant to be example data for calcBgGrav, for gravimetric determination of biogas production. Reactors were glass serum bottles with butyl rubber septa. Data in UQGravBiogas are from the same bottles.

Measurements were made by Sergi Astals and are described in the following paper.
