Low temperatures result in poor anaerobic digestion (AD). To investigate whether bioaugmentation can improve anaerobic co-digestion of cattle manure and corn straw at 20 °C, five different doses of methanogenic propionate-degrading culture (4%, 8%, 12%, 14%, and 16%) were added to batch AD systems to compare bioaugmentation performance. The results showed that the methane production of all the bioaugmented digesters was enhanced compared to the control, increasing 2.80–4.20-fold with digestion times (T₈₀) shorter by 11–22 d. The recommended dose for biogas production was 14%, and the recommended dose for the highest bioaugmentation efficiency of microbes was 4%. These improvements were due to the addition of methanogenic propionate-degrading culture, which alleviated volatile fatty acids (VFA) accumulation, especially that of acetate and propionate. Metagenomic sequencing analysis indicated that the increased proportion of propionate-oxidizing bacteria, syntrophic butyrate-oxidizing bacteria, and acetoclastic methanogens in bioaugmentation reactors may be responsible for better AD performance.
