Maximum reduction of volatile solids (VS)was from cellulose, cellobiose and glucose followed by methanol and other compounds with a product yield coe_cient (Yp=s)of 0.59 m3/kg VS consumed with a volumetric productivity (Qp)of 15.7 mmol/l/d after 12 d fermentation of cellulose. Maximum methane content in the gas mixture was 86.1 UR - https://drive.google.com/file/d/12w2KvoYDU-tvDMR2-rIAcz48mD8MhRNg/view?usp=drivesdk ER -
