Abstract

The main difficulty in treating wastewater while producing methane has been getting the dissolved gas out of the effluent. This review paper’s objective was to investigate previous studies that have been done in this field.. Literature search was conducted and summarized in this document. It is observed that not much research has taken place at a commercial scale and it is suggested that further work need to take place. The research based on use of a membrane seem to have attracted a lot work in recovering dissolved methane from the effluent. It is envisaged that the understanding of the solubility characteristics of methane in the effluent could shed some light in recovery strategies of this gas from the effluent.
