This paper presents a mathematical model for design and optimization of biogas processes from organic and animal waste. The operating conditions of anaerobic fermentation (thermophilic or mesophilic) are determined simultaneously with the selection of different organic and animal wastes from either existing or new plants, different water supplies, transportation paths and wastewater treatments. The model was applied to an existing large-scale meat company. The economically optimal solution efficiently integrates biogas process with its service facilities.

A mycoremediation system of wood substrate and fungal inoculum was established on an organically poor fly ash deposit. Pleurotus ostreatus proved to be the most appropriate for further tests. Compared to the mass loss in a non-contaminated medium, wood degradation with the selected fungal isolate was reduced by 51% on wood substrate contaminated with 17% fly ash.
