Combining a robust thermophilic methanogen and packing material with high liquid hold-up to optimize biological methanation in trickle-bed reactors

Anja Kaul et al.

Summary: The study developed a polyphasic approach to investigate different methanogenic strains and packings from microbial and hydrodynamic perspectives. Results showed that pure cultures of Methanothermobacter performed better in producing high-quality methane and forming biofilms. Therefore, it is recommended to carefully match organisms and packings for optimized performance of trickle-bed reactors.

A standardized archaeal taxonomy for the Genome Taxonomy Database

Christian Rinke et al.

Summary: The study proposes a standardized archaeal taxonomy derived from a 122-concatenated-protein phylogeny, resolving polyphyletic groups and normalizing ranks. This taxonomy is based on 2,392 archaeal genomes, identifying 16 archaeal phyla and reclassifying major monophyletic units. Rank normalization corrects for up to 30-fold substitution rate variations and addresses incomplete and uneven archaeal classifications through a genome-based approach.
