Methanogenesis or biomethamation is a very impressive phenomenon which has noticeable effects on both natural and engineered environments. This process is held by methanogens, which produce methane as the major end product of their metabolism in a unique energy-generating process. The organisms received much attention because they catalyze the terminal step in the anaerobic breakdown of organic matter under sulfate-limiting conditions and are essential for both the recycling of carbon compounds and the maintenance of the global carbon flux on Earth. Furthermore, methane is an important greenho
