Three inhibitors targeting different microorganisms, both from Archaea and Bacteria domains, were evaluated for their effect on CO2 biomethanation: sodium ionophore III (ETH2120), carbon monoxide (CO), and sodium 2-bromoethanesulfonate (BES). This study examines how these compounds affect the anaerobic digestion microbiome in a biogas upgrading process. While archaea were observed in all experiments, methane was produced only when adding ETH2120 or CO, not when adding BES, suggesting archaea were in an inactivated state. Methane was produced mainly via methylotrophic methanogenesis from methylamines. Acetate was produced at all conditions, but a slight reduction on acetate production (along with an enhancement on CH4 production) was observed when applying 20 kPa of CO. Effects on CO2 biomethanation were difficult to observe since the inoculum used was from a real biogas upgrading reactor, being this a complex environmental sample. Nevertheless, it must be mentioned that all compounds had effects on the microbial community composition.

Abstract
Three inhibitors targeting different microorganisms, both from Archaea and Bacteria domains, were evaluated for their effect on CO2 biomethanation: sodium ionophore III (ETH2120), carbon monoxide (CO), and sodium 2-bromoethanesulfonate (BES). This study examines how these compounds affect the anaerobic digestion microbiome in a biogas upgrading process. While archaea were observed in all experiments, methane was produced only when adding ETH2120 or CO, not when adding BES, suggesting archaea were in an inactivated state. Methane was produced mainly via methylotrophic methanogenesis from methylamines. Acetate was produced at all conditions, but a slight reduction on acetate production (along with an enhancement on CH4 production) was observed when applying 20 kPa of CO. Effects on CO2 biomethanation were difficult to observe since the inoculum used was from a real biogas upgrading reactor, being this a complex environmental sample. Nevertheless, it must be mentioned that all compounds had effects on the microbial community composition.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
