The CH₄ oxidation dynamics was investigated by observing the CH₄ oxidation rates at concentrations (from 1.0 × 10⁴ ppmv to 2.0 × 10⁵ ppmv) mixed with O₂ (from 5.0 × 10⁴ ppmv to 7.5 × 10⁵ ppmv). The CH₄–O₂ dual-substrate model based on Michaelis–Menten equation ( [Formula: see text] = 1.4 × 10⁵ ppmv; Vₘₐₓ = 7.6 × 10² μmol kg⁻¹ d⁻¹; [Formula: see text] = 5.5 × 10⁴ ppmv) was got and agreed well with the experimental data when the initial O₂/CH₄ ratio reached 3:1, indicating full aerobic CH₄ oxidization. Anoxic CH₄ oxidation gradually became predominant with decreasing O₂/CH₄ ratios. The effect of CH₄ is more significant than O₂, as evidenced by higher slope (0.58 kg⁻¹ d⁻¹) of [Formula: see text] line graph compared with that of [Formula: see text] line graph (0.062 kg⁻¹ d⁻¹). The paper presents the dynamics of CH₄ oxidation and proposes that ratio of O₂/CH₄ need to be considered for their dynamically changing in environmental habitats. The findings provide an important parameter for optimizing the operations of breathing biocover systems.
