Enhanced Bioconversion of Methane to Biodiesel by Methylosarcina sp. LC-4

TL;DR: In this paper , an efficient methanotroph, Methylosarcina sp. LC-4, was studied as a prospective organism for biodiesel production using methane, and the methane uptake rate by the organism was enhanced 1.6 times and 2.35 times by supplementing it with micronutrients such as copper and tungstate, respectively.

A sequential Electrochemical oxidation – Algal photobioreactor system for the treatment of distillery wastewater

TL;DR: In this article , a sequential electrochemical oxidation (EO) and algal bubble column photobioreactor (BPBR) system was proposed to treat distillery wastewater (DWW), and the optimal treatment conditions for the growth of A. quadricellulare were 27 A for 26 h and a post-treatment dilution of 8.7%.

Three decades of global methane sources and sinks

S. Kirschke, +50 more
- 01 Oct 2013 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors construct decadal budgets for methane sources and sinks between 1980 and 2010, using a combination of atmospheric measurements and results from chemical transport models, ecosystem models, climate chemistry models and inventories of anthropogenic emissions.

Conventional methanotrophs are responsible for atmospheric methane oxidation in paddy soils.

TL;DR: The induction of HAMO activity occurred only after the rapid growth of methanotrophic populations, and a metatranscriptome-wide association study suggests that the concurrent high- and low-affinity methane oxidation was catalysed by known meethanotrophs rather than by the proposed novel atmospheric methane oxidizers.

Methane-Oxidizing Enzymes: An Upstream Problem in Biological Gas-to-Liquids Conversion.

TL;DR: The pros and cons of using each methane-oxidizing enzyme for Bio-GTL are considered in detail and a renewed focus on studying them will be critical to the successful development of biological processes that utilize methane as a feedstock.

Evaluation of aerated biofilter systems for microbial methane oxidation of poor landfill gas

TL;DR: In the long-term, landfills are producing landfill gas (LFG) with low calorific values, therefore, the utilization of LFG in combined heat and power plants (CHP) is limited to a certain period of time and a feasible method for LFG treatment is microbial CH(4) oxidation.
