AB The microbial robustness of three stirred tank reactors (STRs) treating CH4 at low concentrations (4-5 % v/v) operated under feast-famine and continuous feeding mode was systematically evaluated through the analysis of the pmoA gene encoding the enzyme methane monooxygenase. In addition, the elimination capacities (EC) and CO2 production rates of the microbial communities in the STRs were also assessed.                                   This work revealed the extremely fast recovery of CH4 biodegradation activity ofmethanotrophs after a 5-days starvation period regardless of the previous history of themicrobial community. The fact that methane-oxidizing activity was not damaged underlong starvation periods suggested the high robustness of biofiltration for the treatmentof diluted CH4 emissions.
