  • Geomicrobiology of marine sediment containing methane

    Creator:
    Briggs, Brandon R.
    Abstract:
    Marine sediments contain an abundance of methane that is biologically produced and plays a significant role in the global carbon cycle. Microbes responsible for the carbon cycle in marine sediments, and the processes that they carry out, need to be characterized in order to fully understand the role of this...

  • Utilization of natural and supplemental biofuels for harvesting energy from marine sediments

    Creator:
    Nielsen, Mark E.
    Abstract:
    A benthic microbial fuel cell (BMFC) is an electrochemical device that generates current from the redox gradient at the sediment-water interface. Early prototypes had anodes buried in anoxic sediments and cathodes in overlying water. The BMFCs described in this dissertation are based on a chamber design that enables the use...
