Annual report dates come from the budget period on your award notice. That date is not public, so it is not shown here.
How we got this date
- NSF lists this award's end date as 30 June 2028.
- NSF rules say the final report is due no later than 120 days after that.
- So the final report is due by 28 October 2028.

Abstract
Anaerobic digestion uses microbes to turn organic waste into clean energy, such as methane gas, in the absence of oxygen. Sewage sludge can be converted anaerobically to methane gas, which is used to generate heat and electricity. However, sewage sludge contains a high amount of sulfur. During anaerobic digestion, this sulfur turns into volatile gases making the energy-producing process less efficient. Sulfur gas…
