Syntrophic interaction occurs during anaerobic fermentation of organic substances forming
methane as the final product. H 2 and formate are known to serve as the electron carriers in …

Coastal salt marshes are sensitive to global climate change and may play an important role
in mitigating global warming. To evaluate the impacts of Spartina alterniflora invasion on …

The links between microbial taxa, in situ organic matter decomposition, and coupling of
carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) cycles remain unresolved. Here, we used stable isotope …

Anaerobic membrane bioreactor (AnMBR) treatment of a simulated domestic wastewater
was evaluated at psychrophilic temperatures of 15, 12, 9, 6, and 3° C. Chemical oxygen …

Understanding the microbial and metabolic mechanisms of denitrification using different
VFAs as carbon sources can provide a theoretical basis for denitrification process fed by …

Fats, oils and greases (FOG) are energy-dense wastes that can be added to anaerobic
digesters to substantially increase biomethane recovery via their conversion through long …

Reduction of crystalline Fe (III) oxides is one of the most important electron sinks for organic
compound oxidation in natural environments. Yet the limited number of isolates makes it …

Rice paddies are a significant source of the greenhouse gas methane, which mainly
originates from microbial activity. Methane generation in anaerobic systems involves …
