Which risk increases when an anaerobic digester's temperature fluctuates rapidly?

A)Decreased methane production rate
B)Amplified hydrogen sulfide formation
C)Elevated ammonia volatilization losses
D)Increased phosphate precipitation potential

💡 Explanation

Decreased methane production occurs because *methanogenesis* enzymes are sensitive to large temperature variations which can disrupt their function; therefore efficiency decreases, rather than sulfide increases which are due to other bacteria under thermal stress.
