  1. 1. Computational and comparative investigations of syntrophic acetate-oxidising bacteria (SAOB) : genome-guided analysis of metabolic capacities and energy conserving systems

    Author : Shahid Manzoor; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Today's main energy sources are the fossil fuels petroleum, coal and natural gas, which are depleting rapidly and are major contributors to global warming. Methane is produced during anaerobic biodegradation of wastes and residues and can serve as an alternative energy source with reduced greenhouse gas emissions. READ MORE

  2. 2. Biogas production through the syntrophic acetate-oxidising pathway : characterisation and detection of syntrophic acetate-oxidising bacteria

    Author : Maria Westerholm; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Biogas produced from wastes, residues and energy crops has promising potential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and to secure future energy supply. Methane is the energy-rich component of biogas, and is formed as the end product during degradation of organic material without oxygen (anaerobic). READ MORE

  3. 3. Biogas production from thin stillage : exploring the microbial response to sulphate and ammonia

    Author : Jan Moestedt; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : The biogas plant in Norrköping (Tekniska verken i Linköping AB, publ.), Sweden, operates with thin stillage, a residue from bio-ethanol fermentation, as the main feedstock. Thin stillage is energy-rich due to its high protein content, but due to its high nitrogen and sulphate content is a somewhat complicated feedstock. READ MORE
