results are comparable with values recorded presently.
Working on food processing wastes including peels of
mango, tomato, lemon, orange and pineapple, Nand has
reported that the TS content in them varied from 28.4% to
23.4% [11]. The values for VS obtained presently are also
comparable to 92.73% reported by Nand for rotten fruits and
vegetable wastes. The percent of high moisture content in the
organic waste facilitates the anaerobic digestion [12]
