1. Remoção de matéria orgânica carbonácea e nitrogênio em Reator Aeróbio-Anóxico de Leito Fixo (RAALF) aplicado ao pós-tratamento de efluente de reator anaeróbio / Removal of carbonaceous organic matter and nitrogen in an Aerobic-Anoxic Fix Bed Reactor (AAFBR) applied to the tertiary treatment of domestic wastewater
This work presents the Aerobic-Anoxic Fix Bed Reactor (AAFBR), with superimposed chambers, as an alternative concerning the post-treatment of anaerobic reactors efiluents aiming the removal of carbonaceous organic matter and nitrogen. Polyurethane foam cubic matrices (5 mm) were used packing material. Hydrodynamic essays were carried out in order to obtain t

2. Denitrification coupled with methane anoxic oxidation and microbial community involved identification
In this work, the biological denitrification associated with anoxic oxidation of methane and the microbial diversity involved were studied. Kinetic tests for nitrate (NO3-) and nitrite (NO2-) removal and methane uptake were carried out in 100 mL batch reactors incubated in a shaker (40 rpm) at 30 ºC. Denitrificant/methanotrophic biomass was taken from a lab

3. Utilização do metano como doador de elétrons para remoção de nitrogênio via nitrificação e desnitrificação em reator operado em bateladas seqüenciais / Nitrogen removal by biological nitrification and denitrification using methane as electron donor in a sequencing batch aerobic/anoxic reactor
Nitrogen removal via biological nitrification and denitrification was studied in a sequencing batch reactor submitted to aerate and anoxic periods. Methane was added as electron donor for denitrification in the anoxic periods. Different operational and nutritional conditions referred to as stages in this text were tested aiming to achieve the best nitrogen r

4. Seasonal Rates of Methane Oxidation in Anoxic Marine Sediments
Methane concentrations and rates of methane oxidation were measured in intact sediment cores from an inshore marine sediment at Jutland, Denmark. The rates of methane oxidation, determined by the appearance of 14CO2 from injected 14CH4, varied with sediment depth and season. Most methane oxidation was anoxic, but oxygen may have contributed to methane oxidat

5. Anaerobic Methane Oxidation: Occurrence and Ecology
Anoxic sediments and digested sewage sludge anaerobically oxidized methane to carbon dioxide while producing methane. This strictly anaerobic process showed a temperature optimum between 25 and 37°C, indicating an active microbial participation in this reaction. Methane oxidation in these anaerobic habitats was inhibited by oxygen. The rate of the oxidation

6. Survival and Recovery of Methanotrophic Bacteria Starved under Oxic and Anoxic Conditions †
The effects of carbon deprivation on survival of methanotrophic bacteria were compared in cultures incubated in the presence and absence of oxygen in the starvation medium. Survival and recovery of the examined methanotrophs were generally highest for cultures starved under anoxic conditions as indicated by poststarvation measurements of methane oxidation, t

7. Inhibition Experiments on Anaerobic Methane Oxidation †
Anaerobic methane oxidation is a general process important in controlling fluxes of methane from anoxic marine sediments. The responsible organism has not been isolated, and little is known about the electron acceptors and substrates involved in the process. Laboratory evidence indicates that sulfate reducers and methanogens are able to oxidize small quantit

8. Distribution and Rate of Methane Oxidation in Sediments of the Florida Everglades †
Rates of methane emission from intact cores were measured during anoxic dark and oxic light and dark incubations. Rates of methane oxidation were calculated on the basis of oxic incubations by using the anoxic emissions as an estimate of the maximum potential flux. This technique indicated that methane oxidation consumed up to 91% of the maximum potential fl

9. Growth and Methane Oxidation Rates of Anaerobic Methanotrophic Archaea in a Continuous-Flow Bioreactor
Anaerobic methanotrophic archaea have recently been identified in anoxic marine sediments, but have not yet been recovered in pure culture. Physiological studies on freshly collected samples containing archaea and their sulfate-reducing syntrophic partners have been conducted, but sample availability and viability can limit the scope of these experiments.

10. Comparative Analysis of Methane-Oxidizing Archaea and Sulfate-Reducing Bacteria in Anoxic Marine Sediments
The oxidation of methane in anoxic marine sediments is thought to be mediated by a consortium of methane-consuming archaea and sulfate-reducing bacteria. In this study, we compared results of rRNA gene (rDNA) surveys and lipid analyses of archaea and bacteria associated with methane seep sediments from several different sites on the Californian continental m

11. In situ measurement of methane oxidation in groundwater by using natural-gradient tracer tests.
Methane oxidation was measured in an unconfined sand and gravel aquifer (Cape Cod, Mass.) by using in situ natural-gradient tracer tests at both a pristine, oxygenated site and an anoxic, sewage-contaminated site. The tracer sites were equipped with multilevel sampling devices to create target grids of sampling points; the injectate was prepared with groundw

12. Characterization of C1-Metabolizing Prokaryotic Communities in Methane Seep Habitats at the Kuroshima Knoll, Southern Ryukyu Arc, by Analyzing pmoA, mmoX, mxaF, mcrA, and 16S rRNA Genes
Samples from three submerged sites (MC, a core obtained in the methane seep area; MR, a reference core obtained at a distance from the methane seep; and HC, a gas-bubbling carbonate sample) at the Kuroshima Knoll in the southern Ryuku arc were analyzed to gain insight into the organisms present and the processes involved in this oxic-anoxic methane seep envi
