Effect of co-culturing of methanogens with sulphur-reducing bacteria on biomethanation

Biomethanation as a result of co-culturing methanogenic bacteria with sulphate-reducing bacteria was studied under anoxic conditions. Toxic sulphur compounds are known not to inhibit methanogenesis. Hence varying experimental conditions can lead to the optimum conditions for biomethanation. Under controlled experimental conditions, the interacting behaviour of both isolated methanogens and sulphate reducers show interesting features, viz. allelopathy.
