Archaea catalyze iron-dependent anaerobic oxidation of methane [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2016
Anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM) is crucial for controlling the emission of this potent greenhouse gas to the atmosphere. Nitrite-, nitrate-, and sulfate-dependent methane oxidation is well-documented, but AOM coupled to the reduction of oxidized ...

Inhibition Experiments on Anaerobic Methane Oxidation [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 1985
Anaerobic methane oxidation is a general process important in controlling fluxes of methane from anoxic marine sediments. The responsible organism has not been isolated, and little is known about the electron acceptors and substrates involved in the process.

New perspectives on anaerobic methane oxidation. [PDF]

open access: yesEnvironmental microbiology, 2000
Anaerobic methane oxidation is a globally important but poorly understood process. Four lines of evidence have recently improved our understanding of this process. First, studies of recent marine sediments indicate that a consortium of methanogens and sulphate-reducing bacteria are responsible for anaerobic methane oxidation; a mechanism of 'reverse ...

Anaerobic Oxidation of Methane and Ammonium [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Microbiology, 2004
▪ Abstract  Anaerobic oxidation of methane and ammonium are two different processes catalyzed by completely unrelated microorganisms. Still, the two processes do have many interesting aspects in common. First, both of them were once deemed biochemically impossible and nonexistent in nature, but have now been identified as major factors in global ...

Anaerobic Methane Oxidation: Occurrence and Ecology [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 1980
Anoxic sediments and digested sewage sludge anaerobically oxidized methane to carbon dioxide while producing methane. This strictly anaerobic process showed a temperature optimum between 25 and 37°C, indicating an active microbial participation in this reaction. Methane oxidation in these anaerobic habitats was inhibited by oxygen.

Enhancing methane production from food waste fermentate using biochar. The added value of electrochemical testing in pre-selecting the most effective type of biochar [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background: Recent studies have suggested that addition of electrically conductive biochar particles is an effective strategy to improve the methanogenic conversion of waste organic substrates, by promoting syntrophic associations between acetogenic and ...

Biotechnological aspects of sulfate reduction with methane as electron donor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Biological sulfate reduction can be used for the removal and recovery of oxidized sulfur compounds and metals from waste streams. However, the costs of conventional electron donors, like hydrogen and ethanol, limit the application possibilities.

In situ benthic fluxes from an intermittently active mud volcano at the Costa Rica convergent margin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Along the erosive convergent margin off Costa Rica a large number of mound-shaped structures exist built by mud diapirism or mud volcanism. One of these, Mound 12, an intermittently active mud volcano, currently emits large amounts of aqueous dissolved ...

Nitrate‐ and nitrite‐dependent anaerobic oxidation of methane [PDF]

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, 2016
Summary Microbial methane oxidation is an important process to reduce the emission of the greenhouse gas methane. Anaerobic microorganisms couple the oxidation of methane to the reduction of sulfate, nitrate and nitrite, and possibly oxidized iron and manganese minerals.

Research progress on coupling of methanogenesis and anaerobic methane oxidation in the rumen

open access: yes浙江大学学报. 农业与生命科学版, 2020
Reducing methane emission from ruminants has important economic value and ecological significance. Anaerobic methane oxidation (AMO) is an important way to reduce methane emissions in different ecosystems, including wetlands, marine habitats and lakes ...
