The consumption of methane and the production of biodegradable polymers using alphaproteobacterial methanotrophs offers a promising strategy to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions and reduce non-biodegradable plastic pollution. This study identified an...
A significant portion of global greenhouse gas emissions is attributed to methane (CH4), the primary greenhouse gas released by dairy animals. Thus, livestock farming has a new challenge in reducing enteric CH4 for sustainability. In anaerobic microb...
Climate change and the urgent need to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emission from agriculture has resulted in significant pressure on the livestock industry for advanced practices that are environmentally more sustainable. Livestock is responsible for...
Biogas upgrading by a catalytic process has been studied in order to obtain syngas using renewable source of methane. This work evaluates the influence of metal dopant (Gd, Sm, and Zr) on the CeO2 structure for the dry reforming of methane over Ni na...
Methane pyrolysis can produce many valuable products besides hydrogen, e.g., C2 compounds or carbon black. In the conditions provided by microwave plasma, the distribution of these products might be shifted by the addition of hydrogen and nitrogen. I...
This paper analyzes the mitigation of enteric methane (CH4) emissions from ruminants with the use of feed additives inhibiting rumen methanogenesis to limit the global temperature increase to 1.5 °C. A mathematical simulation conducted herein pre...
The thermal cracking process of methane does not present the emissions of polluting gases, forming only hydrogen with a high degree of purity and solid carbon that can be commercialized for other industrial purposes globally. Thermodynamic methodolog...
Demand for a cleaner source of energy is increasing in India. In the search for alternate energy sources, coal bed methane gas receives considerable attention for its potential as a good energy source. During the coalification process, methane gas is...
