Global population is expected to reach 9.7 billion by 2050 from current 8.1 billion. The rising population will significantly increase our demand for resources such as food, feed, fuels, chemicals/materials with concomitant generation of large quantity of residues and wastes (water) along with greenhouse gases (GHGs). Disposal and discharge of these waste (water) streams is not only waste of resources; but also sources of environmental nuisance such as GHGs emissions, surface water and groundwater contamination, and soil and air pollution among others. Thus, there is a critical need to valorize these waste (water) streams and generate renewable energy via anaerobic digestion (AD). This presentation will cover various some advances in AD technology especially nanaerobic digestion for bioenergy production and its role in decarbonization.
