Acetogenesis in the Energy-Starved Deep Biosphere – A Paradox? [PDF]
Under anoxic conditions in sediments, acetogens are often thought to be outcompeted by microorganisms performing energetically more favorable metabolic pathways, such as sulfate reduction or methanogenesis. Recent evidence from deep subseafloor sediments

Enhanced Acetogenesis of Waste Activated Sludge by Conditioning With Processed Organic Wastes in Co-Fermentation: Kinetics, Performance and Microbial Response [PDF]
Aimed at the low ratio of carbon and nitrogen (C/N, approximately 7/1) of waste activated sludge (WAS), which would inhibit the acetogenesis process during anaerobic fermentation, this study introduced three brewing wastes, including vinegar (VR ...

Genome-Scale Analysis of Acetobacterium woodii Identifies Translational Regulation of Acetogenesis
Acetogens synthesize acetyl-CoA via the CO2-fixing Wood-Ljungdahl pathway. Despite their ecological and biotechnological importance, their translational regulation of carbon and energy metabolisms remains unclear.

Methods of Pretreating Raw Materials Containing Organic Compounds before Anaerobic Digestion
Introduction. The volume of accumulated organ-containing non-recyclable waste products in Russia is increasing. Existing technologies make it possible to recycle these waste products through using anaerobic digestion to produce biogas and fertilizers ...

Ancient Metabolisms of a Thermophilic Subseafloor Bacterium
The ancient origins of metabolism may be rooted deep in oceanic crust, and these early metabolisms may have persisted in the habitable thermal anoxic aquifer where conditions remain similar to those when they first appeared.

Investigation of phase equations for anaerobic digestion process of anaerobic bioreactor landfill [PDF]
The anaerobic digestion process consists of four phases hydrolysis, acidogenesis, acetogenesis and methanogenesis. In the present work anaerobic digestion process of waste from anaerobic bioreactor landfill is considered and leachate is analyzed ...

Biodesulfurization processes remove toxic and corrosive hydrogen sulfide from gas streams (e.g., natural gas, biogas, or syngas). To improve the efficiency of these processes under haloalkaline conditions, a sulfate and thiosulfate reduction step can be ...

Obligate autotrophy at the thermodynamic limit of life in a new acetogenic bacterium
One of the important current issues of bioenergetics is the establishment of the thermodynamic limits of life. There is still no final understanding of what is the minimum value of the energy yield of a reaction that is sufficient to be used by an ...
