Herein, we report a novel supplement called Cu@Fe3O4 core shell nanostructure (NS) that revealed a tremendous increment in the biogas production from anaerobic digestion of sewage sludge. Cu@Fe3O4 core-shell NS is synthesized using feasible co-precipitation method and characterized using different t...
