In the past decades, considerable attention has been directed toward anaerobic digestion
(AD), which is an effective biological process for converting diverse organic wastes into …

Methane is the final product of the anaerobic decomposition of organic matter. The
conversion of organic matter to methane (methanogenesis) as a mechanism for energy …

Conventional chemical methods to transform methane and carbon dioxide into useful
chemicals are plagued by the requirement for extreme operating conditions and expensive …

Being an energetic fuel, methane is able to support microbial growth and drive the reduction
of various electron acceptors. These acceptors include a broad range of oxidized …

Although microorganisms carrying copper-containing membrane-bound monooxygenase
(CuMMOs), such as particulate methane monooxygenase (pMMO) and ammonia …

To explore the effect of microelement selenium on greenhouse gas emission, nitrogen loss
and related functional genes during the composting. Selenite and selenate were …

The rapid emergence of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) has become an increasingly
serious threat to public health. Previous studies illustrate the antibiotic-like effect of many …

Metalloids are released into the environment due to the erosion of the rocks or
anthropogenic activities, causing problems for human health in different world regions …

Methanotrophic microorganisms play a critical role in controlling the flux of methane from
natural sediments into the atmosphere. Methanotrophs have been shown to couple the …

Microbial oxidation of organic compounds can promote arsenic release by reducing soil-
associated arsenate to the more mobile form arsenite. While anaerobic oxidation of methane …
