Resumen o descripción

"Vinasses are a residual liquid generated after the production of beverages, such as mezcal and tequila, from agave

(Agave L.), sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum L.) or sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.). These effluents have specific characteristics

such as an acidic pH (from 3.9 to 5.1), a high chemical oxygen demand (50,000–95,000 mg L−1) and biological

oxygen demand content (18,900–78,300 mg L−1), a high total solids content (79,000 and 37,500 mg L−1), high total

volatile solids 79,000 and 82,222 mg L−1, and K+ (10–345 g L−1) content. Vinasses are most commonly discarded onto

soil. Irrigation of soil with vinasses, however, may induce physical, chemical and biochemical changes and affect crop

yields. Emission of greenhouse gases (GHG), such as carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide and methane, might increase from

soils irrigated with vinasses. An estimation of GHG emission from soil irrigated with vinasses is given and discussed in

this review".
