The atmospheric methane burden is increasing rapidly, contrary to pathways compatible
with the goals of the 2015 United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change Paris …

Methanotrophs, cells that consume methane (CH4) as their sole source of carbon and
energy, play key roles in the global carbon cycle, including controlling anthropogenic and …

Landfill gas containing methane is produced by anaerobic degradation of organic waste.
Methane is a strong greenhouse gas and landfills are one of the major anthropogenic …

This review examines the interactions among physical, chemical, and biological factors
responsible for methane (CH4) emission from natural wetlands. Methane is a chemically …

Landfills are the third largest source of anthropogenic CH4 in the United States, and there is
potential for reduction in this source of greenhouse gases and other contaminants. The …

Long-term spatial and temporal variations in temperatures have been investigated in covers,
wastes, and liners at four municipal solid waste landfills located in different climatic regions …

A considerable fraction of the methane that is produced by landfills is oxidized by its
covering soil before it can reach the atmosphere. This process was studied in soil columns …

The influence of different environmental factors on methane oxidation and degradation of
hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) was investigated in microcosms containing soil sampled …

Mechanical biological treatment (MBT) of residual municipal solid waste (RMSW) was
investigated with respect to landfill gas generation. Mechanically treated RMSW was …

Rates and controlling variables for methanotrophic oxidation of methane at a northeastern
Illinois landfill with pumped gas recovery were examined in a field study from June to …
