In this study, we investigated the effect of removing extracellular polymeric substances (EPS), which play important roles in the adhesion and flocculation of WAS, on increased sludge disintegration, thereby enhancing sludge reduction and methane production by anaerobic digestion. EPS removal from WAS by ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) significantly enhanced sludge reduction, i.e., 49% compared with 27.1% of the control at the end the digestion process. Methane production was also improved in WAS without EPS by 8881 µmol/g dry-weight of sludge compare to 5724 µmol/g dry-weight of sludge without EPS removal. Microbial activity was determined by denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis and real-time polymerase chain reaction, which showed that the hydrolysis and acetogenesis stages were enhanced by pretreatment with 2% EDTA, with a larger methanogenic community and better methane production. The results of the study might open a new direction in WAS management, treatment and renewable energy recover.

The amount of waste from the production and processing of this sector is large and increasing. This is also an abundant source of raw materials, which can be used for energy production. This paper presents the application of microbial strain isolated in Vietnam to metabolize the slightly soluble polymeric compounds into soluble low-molecular compounds as feedstock for biogas plants. After 21 days of incubation, the levels of cellulase, pentoza and lignin significantly reduce; the substances dissolving in cold water increase by 43.32 %. Using soluble lowmolecular compounds for biogas tank results the gas composition of 57.8 % of CH4, 36.3% of CO2, which is suitable for burning for heating and electricity generation.
