reducing bacteria because it can use acetate and some fatty acids. Thermosulfobacteria are also important in aerobic environments if they can rapidly reproduce in anaerobic environments. For example‚ in marine sediments and in aerobic wastewater treatment systems‚ sulfate reduction causes up to 50% of the mineralization of organic material. Also sulfate reduction stimulates microbially enhanced corrosion of metals. The bacteria’s habitat is generally known to be aquatic

The main factors of this article called “Methanol--the fuel in Waiting” explains how Methanol could both have positive and negative effects in the environment and the economy. The article discusses how methanol could be another alternative to gasoline and it is a made from natural gas‚ which makes it easier to make and use. Methanol (see Figure 1) is that it is the simplest alcohol with a chain of one carbon atom with three hydrogen atoms attached. The characteristics of this simple alcohol are
