The prototypical representatives of the Euryarchaeota—the methanogens—are oxygen
sensitive and are thought to occur only in highly reduced, anoxic environments. However …

Carbon dioxide (CO 2) is mainly universal greenhouse gas associated with climate change.
However, beyond CO 2, some other greenhouse gases (GHGs) like methane (CH 4) and …

Anaerobic digestion often generates 'biogas'–an approximately 3: 1 mixture of methane and
carbon dioxide–which has been known to be a 'clean'fuel since the late 19th century. But a …
