Total DNA or RNA isolated from biogas plant sludge was used for these investigations (Fig. 5). By these methods, Firmicutes were found to be the majority of bacteria in saccharolytic bacterial communities such as a biogas fermenter (see... 

Identification of key players for cellulose degradation in the biogas fermenter is hampered by the limited knowledge on truly cellulolytic bacteria. Some important cellulose-degrading bacteria in nature seem to be still undetected,...

Notably, several types of liquid biofuels exist or are under development and have the potential to replace fossil fuels, especially in the transportation sector. The focus is on organic fuels such as ethanol, butanol, methanol and their derivatives ETBE, MTBE, which can be produced by fermentation, but also biodiesel and liquid biogas, which can provide interesting biomass-based alternatives to diesel and LPG.
