内容简介：

The controlled anaerobic decomposition of organic matter in bioreactors or landfills is a sustainable waste treatment and energy conservation method. Anaerobic digestion is a method that can be used to efficiently convert recalcitrant compounds, like cyclic compounds, if well combined with the appropriated technologies. Besides that, it is possible to use wastewaters as feedstock sources to form several valuable compounds. The present course will be composed of five lectures in which we intend to cover the essential fundaments of anaerobic digestion, focusing on the stability of the process, their particularities, and new trends. In the first lecture, interesting aspects of the history of anaerobic digestion will be presented, when important milestones and the main actors in the story will be highlighted. The biochemical and thermodynamic fundamentals of the processes will then be presented and discussed. Finally, applications will be presented focusing on the main reactors and systems used to produce methane.

Giovana Tommaso is associate professor at of University of Sao Paulo since 2012, having been hired in 2005. She is responsible for the Environmental Biotechnology Lab since 2007. She was visiting scholar at University of Minho (Portugal) in 2010 and University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign in 2013 (pos doctoral internship with FAPESP grant). She had three awarded posters at the VII, XI and XII Latin American Workshop on Anaerobic Digestion (International Water Association), in 2002, 2014 and 2017. In 2017, one of her presentation awarded as the best in the Environmental Biotechnology section. She is referee of the following journals: Bioresource Technology, Waste Management, Brazilian Journal of Chemical Engineering, Water Science and Technology, Biochemical Engineering Journal, Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, Chemical Industry & Chemical Engineering Quarterly, Energy (Oxford), Plos One, Renewable Energy e Frontiers of Agricultural Science and Engineering. Her research interests are related to Environmental Engineering, with emphasis on wastewater treatment and bioenergy, focused mainly in the subjects: anaerobic process, anaerobic reactors, hydrothermal liquefaction.
