Immobilization of Methylosinus trichosporium OB3b in a Biolamina Plate Reactor for the Oxidation of Methane to Methanol

Creator:

Fuchs, Brian K.

Abstract:

Methane is a flammable gas that is the main component of natural gas. It is a highly potent greenhouse gas, and accounts for about 20% of greenhouse gas emissions. Methane is routinely flared in many industrial processes without harnessing any of its energy. The environmental impact and wasted energy potential...
