Electromethanogenesis: the direct bioconversion of current to methane.
Full Text HTML Methane can be a problem or a solution, depending on one’s viewpoint or circumstance. For Bruce Logan and co-workers at Pennsylvania State University, it’s both. It’s a problem when the researchers want to make hydrogen gas in microbial electrolysis cells (MECs), because making methane reduces hydrogen yield. The researchers have been studying the formation of methane in MECs in ...
متن کاملDirect biological conversion of electrical current into methane by electromethanogenesis.
New sustainable methods are needed to produce renewable energy carriers that can be stored and used for transportation, heating, or chemical production. Here we demonstrate that methane can directly be produced using a biocathode containing methanogens in electrochemical systems (abiotic anode) or microbial electrolysis cells (MECs; biotic anode) by a process called electromethanogenesis. At a ...
متن کاملBioconversion of methane to lactate by an obligate methanotrophic bacterium.
Methane is the second most abundant greenhouse gas (GHG), with nearly 60% of emissions derived from anthropogenic sources. Microbial conversion of methane to fuels and value-added chemicals offers a means to reduce GHG emissions, while also valorizing this otherwise squandered high-volume, high-energy gas. However, to date, advances in methane biocatalysis have been constrained by the low-produ...
متن کاملfrom linguistics to literature: a linguistic approach to the study of linguistic deviations in the turkish divan of shahriar
chapter i provides an overview of structural linguistics and touches upon the saussurean dichotomies with the final goal of exploring their relevance to the stylistic studies of literature. to provide evidence for the singificance of the study, chapter ii deals with the controversial issue of linguistics and literature, and presents opposing views which, at the same time, have been central to t...

The surface area of a graphite electrode used in this study was incorrectly reported. The brush fiber exposed surface area was 0.12 m 2 (not 740 m 2), which was 100 times larger than the graphite block projected surface area (10.6 cm 2). This is an open access article published under an ACS AuthorChoice License, which permits copying and redistribution of the article or any adaptations for non-...
