Large amounts of methane produced by decomposers are typically found in anaerobic environments, such as wetlands, swamps, and marshes. In these oxygen-poor conditions, microorganisms like methanogens break down organic matter, generating methane as a byproduct. Additionally, methane can be found in landfills, where decomposing organic waste also creates anaerobic conditions conducive to methane production.
What else can I help you with?
Why do we decompose?
As the cells die, bacteria within the body begin breaking them down. Enzymes in the pancreas cause the organ to digest itself. The body soon takes on a gruesome appearance and smell. Decomposing tissue emits a green substance, as well as gasses such as methane and hydrogen sulfide.
What are some examples of alternative fuel?
Some well known alternative fuels include biodiesel, ethanol, butanol, chemically stored electricity (batteries and fuel cells), hydrogen, methane, natural gas, vegatable oil, peanut oil, and biomass.
What things help materials decompose faster?
[1] Enough constant circulation of air, so that the compost pile doesn't run out of oxygen. Decomposition takes place with oxygen [ka aerobic], or without [ka anaerobic]. Anaerobic decomposition is what takes place in landfills. That leads to bad smells, and to greenhouse gases such as methane. [2] Enough heat, although cold composting is possible. [3] Enough moisture, so that compostable materials are about on par with wrung-out sponges. [4] Regular turning of the compost pile layers. The more the pile is turned, the quicker the breakdown takes place. Compostable materials that are turned daily may be compost in less than a month.
When your 1994 Jeep Grand Cherokee is running with or without the air conditioner on there is a rattling noise you can hear outside really well Does this mean your air conditioner is going out?
I own 2 Jeep Grand Cherokees. I had the same issue with one of mine and it turned out to be a bad catalytic converter which was making that nasty banging noise. It would mostly make the noise when sitting in one spot idling the engine. You will have to get that replaced before you can pass any future emissions tests. Good Luck It might also be your water pump going out. Where does the sound come from? Front of engine or below? If it is front - check water pump. Remove fan belt and see if water pump will wiggle up and down. If below, does the engine emit a 'stinky; smell. Sometime, the c-converter can emit a methane like odor.
What is completely absorbed by the ozone is it x-rays- gamma rays- visible light- UV- microwaves- radio waves- or infrared waves?
In order of increasing energies: # radio waves, passes through ozone. # microwaves, passes through ozone, but there are some resonances in "spinning" the molecule at a few tens of frequencies. # infrared, ozone absorbs some infrared... it is a molecule with more than two atoms. # visible light, very little interaction with all but blue. # ultraviolet light, UV-A passes through, UV-B and UV-C are absorbed. # X-rays, absorbed. # gamma rays, absorbed. Now it is important how much ozone is available along any given path for absorbing the radiation. Gases are very sparse, so "completely absorbed" doesn't happen. In addition, UV-C and more energetic are absorbed by all gases in our atmosphere. Ozone is unique in absorbing UV-B, and shares absorbing infrared with things like methane and water vapor.
Do sodas have methane?
Sodas do not contain methane as an intentional ingredient. However, if the beverage is produced using carbonation or fermentation processes, small amounts of methane may be produced as a byproduct.
Is there methane in animal manure?
Yes, animal manure contains methane. Methane is produced during the decomposition of organic matter in manure by anaerobic bacteria. Proper manure management practices can help reduce methane emissions.
What branch of science study methane gas?
It could be chemistry or biology.
What is the name of the planet with methane?
Uranus and Neptune have a high percentage of methane. Jupiter and Saturn have lower amounts.
What is a newly discovered multilcellular organism feed on organic waste?
They are called detrivores, or decomposers.
What is the gas that is produced when garbage decomposes?
methane
Does the planet venus have the material methane?
Probably, but in tiny amounts.
Which hydrocarbon produced by archaea bubbles up into ocean water from marine sediments?
Methane
What color flame is produced when natural gas (methane) and air are properly mixed?
When natural gas (methane) and air are properly mixed, a blue flame is produced.
Do rotting people give off methane gas?
Yes everything that dies and it's organic matter becomes methane. Anaerobically.
Does burping or farting pollute your air?
Burping and farting release small amounts of gases like carbon dioxide and methane, which are natural byproducts of digestion. While these gases do contribute to air pollution in large quantities, the small amounts released through burping and farting are not significant enough to pose a pollution concern.
What gas is produced from rice fields and cows?
Methane
