Review highlights microbial communities and metabolic pathways in anaerobic digestion of organic solid wastes, suggesting key areas for improvement.

Enhancing methane production in anaerobic digestion requires optimizing the hydrogenotrophic methanogenesis pathway and TCA cycle.
This review shows that the efficiency of anaerobic digestion varies significantly depending on the type of organic solid waste processed.
Observational analysis of four types of organic solid wastes reveals critical influences of substrate-specific factors on microbial communities and pathways.
The findings support the need for targeted strategies to improve resource recovery and energy utilization in sustainable waste management.

Cao et al. (2025) studied this question.
