Performance Assessment and Enrichment of Anaerobic Methane Oxidizing Microbial Communities from Marine Sediments in Bioreactors (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This study is broadly divided into three sections: a) understanding and knowledge development on anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM), anaerobic methanotrophs and their physiology and distribution; b) characterisation of AOM hosting sediment, basically in the coastal sediment from marine lake Grevelingen; and c) enrichment based study of ANME in different bioreactors configurations which includes membrane bioreactor, biotrickling filter and high pressure bioreactor. This research experimentally demonstrates that biomass retention and the continuous supply of methane can favour the growth of the slow growing anaerobic methane oxidizing community in bioreactors even under ambient conditions.

Autorenporträt

Dr. Susma Bhattarai Gautam is from Nepal. She obtained her bachelor (BSc) and MSc in Environmental Science with the specialization in water resource management from Tribuvan University, Nepal. She obtained her masters (MSc) in Environmental Science from UNESCO-IHE, Institute of Water Education, Delft, the Netherlands, during which she worked on a research project from EAWAG, Switzerland which characterized the microbial community of Lake Kivu sediment, East Africa. Susma did her PhD in Environmental Science and Technology in Erasmus Mundus Joint Doctorate Programme Environmental Technologies for Contaminated Solids, Soils and Sediments (ETeCoS3). Her research was mainly focused on the study of anaerobic oxidation of methane, enrichment of anaerobic methanotrophic communities which perform anaerobic oxidation of methane in bioreactors and understand their ecophysiology.
Susma's main research interest are environmental biotechnology, anaerobic processes and molecular biology.
