Ammonia inhibition in anaerobic digestion: A review
Orhan Yenigun,Burak Demirel +1 more
TL;DR: Ammonia inhibition in anaerobic digestion systems and the recovery efforts after inhibition are discussed and the impacts of ammonia inhibition on the microbial population available in an aerobic digesters, namely bacteria and Archaea are evaluated in detail.

Direct Interspecies Electron Transfer between Geobacter metallireducens and Methanosarcina barkeri
Amelia-Elena Rotaru,Pravin Malla Shrestha,Fanghua Liu,Beatrice Markovaite,Shanshan Chen,Shanshan Chen,Kelly P. Nevin,Derek R. Lovley +7 more
TL;DR: M. barkeri is the second methanogen found to accept electrons via DIET and the first meetinghanogen known to be capable of using either H2 or electrons derived from DIET for CO2 reduction, making it a model organism for elucidating mechanisms by which methanogens make biological electrical connections with other cells.

Syntrophy Goes Electric: Direct Interspecies Electron Transfer
TL;DR: The finding that DIET can serve as the source of electrons for anaerobic photosynthesis further broadens its potential environmental significance.

Microbial characteristics in anaerobic digestion process of food waste for methane production–A review
TL;DR: A critical summary of microbial characteristics was provided to obtain connects of microbial community structure with operational conditions at various states of AD, such as mesophilic and thermophilic, wet and dry, success and failure, pretreated or not, lab-scale and full-scale.

Carbon cloth stimulates direct interspecies electron transfer in syntrophic co-cultures.
Shanshan Chen,Amelia-Elena Rotaru,Amelia-Elena Rotaru,Fanghua Liu,Jo Philips,Trevor L. Woodard,Kelly P. Nevin,Derek R. Lovley +7 more
TL;DR: The ability of carbon cloth to accelerate DIET should be considered in anaerobic digester designs that incorporate carbon cloth, although the syntrophic partners were too far apart for cell-to-cell biological electrical connections to be feasible.

Journal ArticleDOI
Inhibition of anaerobic digestion process: A review
TL;DR: This review provides a detailed summary of the research conducted on the inhibition of anaerobic processes and indicates that co-digestion with other waste, adaptation of microorganisms to inhibitory substances, and incorporation of methods to remove or counteract toxicants before an aerobic digestion can significantly improve the waste treatment efficiency.
Journal ArticleDOI
Principles and potential of the anaerobic digestion of waste-activated sludge
TL;DR: In this article, the authors extensively review the principles of anaerobic digestion, the process parameters and their interaction, the design methods, the biogas utilisation, the possible problems and potential pro-active cures, and the recent developments to reduce the impact of the problems.

COMPLETE GENOME SEQUENCE OF THE METHANOGENIC ARCHAEON, $i(METHANOCOCCUS JANNASCHII)
TL;DR: In this article, the complete 1.66-megabase pair genome sequence of an autotrophic archaeon, Methanococcus jannaschii, and its 58 and 16-kilobase pair extrachromosomal elements are described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Energetics of syntrophic cooperation in methanogenic degradation.
TL;DR: S syntrophically fermenting bacteria synthesize ATP by substrate-level phosphorylation and reinvest part of the ATP-bound energy into reversed electron transport processes, to release the electrons at a redox level accessible by the partner bacteria and to balance their energy budget.
Journal ArticleDOI
Methanogenic archaea: ecologically relevant differences in energy conservation.
TL;DR: In methanogens with cytochromes, the first and last steps in methanogenesis from CO2 are coupled chemiosmotically, whereas in methenogens without cyto Chromes, these steps are energetically coupled by a cytoplasmic enzyme complex that mediates flavin-based electron bifurcation.
