The agricultural production of ruminants is responsible for 24% of global methane
emissions, contributing 39% of emissions of this greenhouse gas from the agricultural …

This paper critically reviews the impacts of supplementing trace elements on the anaerobic
digestion performance. The in-depth knowledge of trace elements as micronutrients and …

Trace metals are essential for the growth of anaerobic microorganisms, however, in practice
they are often added to anaerobic digesters in excessive amounts, which can lead to …

Microbiological formation of methane has been occurring naturally for ages in such diverse
habitats as marshes, rice paddies, benthic deposits, deep ocean trenches, hot springs, trees …

Wastewater Microbiology focuses on microbial contaminants found in wastewater, methods
of detection for these contaminants, and methods of cleansing water of microbial …

Anaerobic digestion (AD) of wastewater sludge is an effective approach to produce
biomethane and subsequently reduce the amount of sludge disposal to landfill generated …

The availability of trace metals as micro-nutrients plays a very significant role on the
performance and stability of agricultural biogas digesters, which are operated with energy …
