Non-syntrophic reactions in anaerobic unsaturated LCFA conversion by methanogenic sludges

Lipids are energy-rich compounds. This energy can be conserved as biogas in anaerobic bioreactors but the process is frequently hindered by long-chain fatty acids (LCFA) accumulation. LCFA catabolism is thought to occur via beta-oxidation, performed by anaerobic bacteria that live in obligatory synt...
