Sulfate Reduction dependent Anaerobic Methane Oxidation in Novel Membrane and Electrochemical Bioreactors (SUREANMETOX)
Date du début: 30 mai 2013, Date de fin: 29 mai 2015,
Methane (CH4) is a potent greenhouse gas produced in diverse terrestrial subsurface and marine ecosystems. However, the amount of CH4 emitted to the atmosphere from these ecosystems is largely reduced by methanotrophic microorganisms –microbes that oxidize CH4 to obtain energy and carbon source for their metabolism. Methane oxidation can occur aerobically or anaerobically. While extensive informat ...
