Abstract
This experiment is designed to improve gasifiation efficiency of organic waste by methane fermentation using subcritical water processing. This paper explores the characteristics of organic matter decomposition and gasification of methane fermentation due to the differences in subcritical water processing. Asa result, while the temperature increase faciliitated organic matter decomposition, it did not effect gasification of methane fermentation, which instead showed high amount of gasification at 100 and 150 degrees. This result thus leads to the conclusion that the temperature range from 100 to 150 degrees is the optimum pretreatment condition for subcritical water processing.
