Additives, such as iron oxides, have been used in anaerobic digestion (AD) to promote direct interspecies electron transfer and to boost methane yield. However, the function of additives in the AD of antibiotic-contaminated organic wastes remained unclear. In this study, the effects of ferric hydroxide and (semi) conductive iron oxides, namely hematite and magnetite, on the AD of oxytetracycline (OTC)-contaminated dairy manure were investigated. Each iron oxide was assigned to a set of experiment where 0.25 g/L of OTC was added to 1 L batch digesters, while the concentration of iron oxide was varied from 0.08 to 0.34 g/L. Generally, magnetite was the most effective iron oxide to enhance methane yield in OTC-free dairy manure followed by ferric hydroxide and hematite. However, when the manure was contaminated with OTC, higher methane yield was observed in ferric hydroxide followed by hematite, while the lowest was with magnetite. In all digesters, the highest methane yield was observed with ferric hydroxide at 0.08 g/L, which was 1.43-fold of that with OTC and without iron oxides. The kinetic studies of methane yield demonstrated that the addition of iron oxides in the AD of OTC-contaminated dairy manure did not shorten the lag phase period despite the increase of methane yield. Thus, the increase of methane yield with ferric hydroxide was attributed to the possible formation of Fe-OTC complex, which attenuated the inhibition of OTC. A strategy to recover OTC residue in the AD was proposed using magnetite, a ferromagnetic particle, and high gradient magnetic separator.
