Therefore, it is usually to be accumulated when the anaerobic digesters are subjected to any shock such as an increase of organic load rate, temperature fluctuation and present of some toxins, even resulting in failure of the anaerobic process (Kaspar and Wuhrmann, 1978; Wong et al., 2009; Shah et al., 2009; Liu et al., 2010).
