1·There is a barrier between reservoir and atmospheric water of basin margin forming reducing environment with low sulphate which is favorable to methane bacteria activity.
储层与盆地边缘大气水渗滤带隔绝，形成了低硫酸盐的还原环境，有利于甲烷菌活动。
2·The organic material will be anaerobic decomposed by methane bacteria when municipal solid waste (MSW) is processing in landfills, thus methane will be emitted to the atmosphere.
城市固体废弃物(MSW)在填埋处理时，甲烷菌将使废弃物中的有机物质发生厌氧分解，从而会有甲烷排放到大气中。
3·Other ancient bacteria consumed methane, greatly reducing its amount in the atmosphere.
其他古代细菌消耗甲烷，大大减少了甲烷在大气中的含量。
4·When our Sun later became hotter, the continued removal of atmospheric carbon dioxide and methane by early bacteria kept Earth's climate from becoming too hot to sustain life.
当我们的太阳后来温度变得更高时，早期细菌持续清除大气中的二氧化碳和甲烷，使地球的气候不至于变得太热而无法维持生命的存在。
5·Using those results, they hope to learn how to manipulate the bacteria to produce more carboxylates, a chemical that precedes the formation of alkanes like methane and propane.
通过这些研究，研究人员希望能学会如何操控这些菌类以制造更多的羧酸盐，一种可以产生甲烷和丙烷的烷烃物质。
6·And if Curiosity's sniffer detects methane gas, it could even imply the latter, since methane can be a byproduct of living subsurface bacteria.
而如果“好奇号”的嗅探器检测到了甲烷气体，则可以证明后者，因为甲烷是地下细菌生存的副产物。
7·This two-tank system produces more methane than conventional methods because different strains of bacteria, which chew up different components of faeces, work better at different temperatures.
较之传统的发酵工序，这种“双槽系统”能够产生更多的沼气，因为分解排泄物的细菌种类有所不同，于是适合它们分解废物的温度需求也有所不同。
8·What happens, she explained, is that naturally occurring Gulf bacteria "eat up" the vast amounts of methane and other gases.
她继续解释道，那些随之而来的海湾微生物会“吃掉”大部分甲烷和各种其他气体。
9·The fact the bacteria took in that large amount of methane could indicate that bacteria might absorb other large-scale deep ocean methane releases, the scientists said.
科学们还说说，从细菌摄取大量的事实表明，这些细菌也许能摄取其他深海里释放的甲烷。
10·In lake Kivu, bacteria in the lake convert the CO2 into methane, which is highly flammable and could trigger an even more dangerous lake explosion.
在基伍湖里，细菌将CO2转换成非常易燃的沼气，随时都可能引发更加危险的爆炸。
