Coupling hydrothermal carbonization and anaerobic digestion for cooking plantain peel valorization: enhanced methane production and soil carbon dynamics

The valorization of cooking plantain ( Musa paradisiaca ) peel biomass (MPB) remains underexplored despite its abundance and nutrient-rich composition. This study evaluated an integrated hydrothermal carbonization (HTC)–anaerobic digestion (AD) approach for MPB valorization, targ...
