Engineered methanotrophic syntrophy in photogranule communities removes dissolved methane
Water Research X, 2021 The anaerobic treatment of wastewater leads to the loss of dissolved methane in the effluent of the treatment plant, especially when operated at low temperatures.

Exploring the bounds of methane catalysis in the context of atmospheric methane removal
Environmental Research LettersMethane, a potent greenhouse gas, is a significant contributor to global warming, with future increases in its abundance potentially leading to an increase of more than 1 ^∘ C by 2050 beyond other greenhouse gases if left unaddressed.

A methanotrophic bacterium to enable methane removal for climate mitigation. [PDF]
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2023 The rapid increase of the potent greenhouse gas methane in the atmosphere creates great urgency to develop and deploy technologies for methane mitigation. One approach to removing methane is to use bacteria for which methane is their carbon and energy source (methanotrophs). Such bacteria naturally convert methane to CO

A Humidity-Tolerant Photocatalyst for Methane Removal. [PDF]
Environ Sci TechnolTo mitigate the climate impacts of methane, there has been substantial interest in the complete oxidation of methane to carbon dioxide by using photocatalysis at ambient temperatures. However, previous studies have primarily examined methane concentrations well above those found at most emission sources and have overlooked the role of realistic ...

Atmospheric methane removal by methane-oxidizing bacteria immobilized on porous building materials [PDF]
Applied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2013 Biological treatment using methane-oxidizing bacteria (MOB) immobilized on six porous carrier materials have been used to mitigate methane emission. Experiments were performed with different MOB inoculated in building materials at high (~20 % (v/v)) and low (~100 ppmv) methane mixing ratios.

Direct Methane Removal from Air by Aerobic Methanotrophs. [PDF]
Cold Spring Harb Perspect Biol, 2023 The rapid pace of climate change has created great urgency for short-term mitigation strategies. Appropriately, the long-term target for intervening in global warming is CO2, but experts suggest that methane should be a key short-term target. Methane has a warming impact 34 times greater than CO2 on a 100-year timescale, and 86 times greater on a 20 ...

Environmental Research Letters, 2023 Lowering the atmospheric methane concentration is critical to reducing short-term global warming because of methane’s high radiative forcing and relatively short lifetime. Methane could be destroyed at its emissions sources or removed from the atmosphere

Energies, 2023 Tomato plant waste (TPW) is a significant agricultural byproduct that has been often underutilized. Recent studies have shown that its use to obtain methane in an anaerobic digestion (AD) process is viable.

Enhanced Adsorptive Bioremediation of Heavy Metals (Cd2+, Cr6+, Pb2+) by Methane-Oxidizing Epipelon
Microorganisms, 2020 Cadmium (Cd), chromium (Cr) and lead (Pb) are heavy metals that have been classified as priority pollutants in aqueous environment while methane-oxidizing bacteria as a biofilter arguably consume up to 90% of the produced methane in the same aqueous ...
