Natural gas is a mixture of low molecular weight hydrocarbon gases that can be generated
from either fossil or anthropogenic resources. Although natural gas is used as a …

Methane is the main component of natural gas and biogas. As an abundant energy source,
methane is crucial not only to meet current energy needs but also to achieve a sustainable …

In light of the availability of low-cost methane (CH 4) derived from natural gas and biogas
along with increasing concerns of the greenhouse gas emissions, the production of …

The discovery of abundant natural gas resources has greatly increased the study of using
methane as a feedstock to produce transportation fuels. Biogas (primarily containing …

Methane is a promising next-generation carbon feedstock for industrial biotechnology due to
its low price and huge availability. Biological conversion of methane to valuable products …

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

This paper presents challenging opportunities for production of liquid and gaseous fuels by
biotechnology. From the liquid fuels, ethyl alcohol production has been widely researched …

Methane is considered as a next-generation carbon feedstock owing to the vast reserves of
natural and shale gas. Methane can be converted to methanol by various methods, which in …

Biofuels derived from biomass will play a major role in future renewable energy supplies in
transport. Gaseous biofuels have superior energy balances, offer greater greenhouse gas …

Methane is the second most abundant greenhouse gas (GHG), with nearly 60% of
emissions derived from anthropogenic sources. Microbial conversion of methane to fuels …
