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 …

Methane is an important greenhouse gas and microbes in the environment play major roles
in both global methane emissions and terrestrial sinks. However, a full mechanistic …

The process of nitrite-dependent anaerobic methane oxidation (n-damo) was recently
discovered and shown to be mediated by “Candidatus Methylomirabilis oxyfera”(M. oxyfera) …

Landfills remain the predominant means of solid waste management worldwide.
Widespread distribution and significant stockpiles of waste in landfills make them a …

Biological nitrogen removal (BNR) is a critical process in wastewater treatment. Recently,
there have new microbial communities been discovered to be capable of performing BNR …

Large amounts of methane, a potent greenhouse gas, are produced in anoxic sediments by
methanogenic archaea. Nonetheless, over 90% of the produced methane is oxidized via …

Anaerobic methane oxidation coupled to denitrification, also known as “nitrate/nitrite-
dependent anaerobic methane oxidation”(n-damo), was discovered in 2006. Since then …

Reduction in methane emissions to the Earth's atmosphere is a critical strategy for tackling
climate change. It is well established that anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM) associated …

The anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM) is an important sink of methane that plays a
significant role in global warming. AOM was first found to be coupled with sulfate reduction …

Microbial methane oxidation is an important process to reduce the emission of the
greenhouse gas methane. Anaerobic microorganisms couple the oxidation of methane to …
