Abstract:Carbon and hydrogen isotope compositions of CH 4 generated via methanogenesis in cultures of South Sumatra Basin (SSB) coalbed methane (CBM) formation waters grown on coal, acetate and H 2 +CO 2 were investigated. CH 4 production and molecular analysis confirmed the presence of active microbial communities that are able to convert coal into CH 4 using both acetoclastic and hydrogenotrophic pathways. The representative bacterial sequences were dominated by Bacteroidetes, Firmicutes and Deltaproteobacteria, whil… Show more
“…It was very similar to the results showed in table 1 (α = 1.041-1.046). The same range of α value has been used for calculation of f ma during study on rice fields and laboratory study [46,48].…”

“…Several coal beds that produce methane are of biogenic origin, where microbial communities play a major role in the conversion of coal to methane. It has been reported that, in the U.S two CBM of Forest City and Powder River basin (Flores et al 2008) and Indonesian coal bed (Susilawati et al 2016) are of biogenic origin. So the microorganisms in coal beds have the potential to convert the coal into simpler compounds, then further into biogas.…”
“…In addition, the δ 2 H stable isotope has a reliable relationship within ecosystems from low to high trophic levels. The δ 2 H stable isotope composition of an organism therefore provides a signature of the organism's natal environment through its diet (Holder et al 2014;Susilawati et al 2016;Peng et al 2016).…”
