مستخلص: This study investigated the impact of two low-temperature thermal pre-treatments on continuous anaerobic reactors' performance, sequentially fed with sludge of different total solids content (∼3 % and ∼6 %) and subjected to progressively increasing Organic Loading Rates (OLR) from 1.0 to 2.5 g volatile solids/(L Reactor ⋅day). Assessing pre-treatments' influence on influent sludge characteristics revealed enhanced organic matter hydrolysis, facilitating sludge solubilization and methanogenesis; volatile fatty acids concentration also increased, particularly in pre-treated sludge of ∼6 % total solids, indicating improved heating efficiency under increased solids content. The reactor fed with sludge pre-treated at 45 °C for 48 h and 55 °C for an extra 48 h exhibited the highest methane yield under all applied OLRs, peaking at 240 ± 3.0 mL/g volatile solids at the OLR of 2.5 g volatile solids/(L Reactor ⋅day). 16S rRNA gene sequencing demonstrated differences in the reactors' microbiomes as evidence of sludge thickening and the different pre-treatments applied, which promoted the release of organic matter in diverse concentrations and compositions. Finally, the microbial analysis revealed that specific foam-related genera increased in abundance in the foam layer of reactors' effluent bottles, dictating their association with the sludge foaming incidents that occurred inside the reactors during their operation at 2.0 g volatile solids/(L Reactor ⋅day).
