1. Biokinetic Characterization of Methane Oxidizing Microbiomes Co-metabolizing Trace Organic Chemicals
University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk mikrobiologiAbstract : The presence of organic micropollutants (OMPs) in wastewater effluents is concerning, as they pose a threat to human and aquatic health. Biodegradation via methane-oxidizing bacteria (MOB) is an attractive option, as the method is cheap and effective. MOB can co-metabolize a variety of substrates, there among organic micropollutants.

2. Effects of vegetation and nutrients on methanotroph abundance and methane emissions from constructed wetlands
University essay from SLU/Dept. of Aquatic Sciences and AssessmentAbstract : Agriculture is the largest anthropogenic source of nitrogen and phosphorous (P) leakage to Swedish coastal seas, causing eutrophication which threatens marine ecosystems. Constructing wetlands is one way to improve nutrient retention in the modern agricultural landscape. However, constructed wetlands can emit substantial amounts of methane (CH4). READ MORE

3. An annual evaluation of CH4 oxidation in a freshwater lake
University essay from Linköpings universitet/Tema MiljöförändringAbstract : Freshwater lakes constrain its methane (CH4) emissions through CH4 oxidation. CH4 includes three carbon (C) isotopes; the stable isotopes 12C,13C and the unstable and more uncommon isotope 14C. Methanotrophs (i.e. READ MORE

5. Methane Oxidation in three Swedish Forest Soils
University essay from SLU/Dept. of Soil and EnvironmentAbstract : Aerated soils are the largest sinks of atmospheric methane on the Earth’s surface. Methane removal from the atmosphere is performed through oxidation by microorganisms (methaneoxidising bacteria) in the soil. READ MORE
