Methanothermobacter is a genus of archaeans in the family Methanobacteriaceae.See the NCBI [https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Taxonomy/Browser/wwwtax.cgi?mode=Info&id=145260 webpage on Methanothermobacter]. Data extracted from the {{cite web | url=http://ftp.ncbi.nih.gov/pub/taxonomy/ | title=NCBI taxonomy resources | publisher=National Center for Biotechnology Information | access-date=2007-03-19}} The species within this genus are thermophilic and grow best at temperatures between 55 °C and 65 °C. They are methanogens; they use carbon dioxide and hydrogen as substrates to produce methane for energy.{{cite book|editor1=Stanley Falkow|editor2=Eugene Rosenberg|editor3=Karl-Heinz Schleifer|editor4=Erko Stackebrandt|title=The Prokaryotes|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=swciHNNWZDEC&q=%22genus+methanothermobacter%22&pg=PA241|volume=3|publisher=Springer Science & Business Media|pages=241|date=2006-10-10|access-date=2016-08-30|isbn=0387254935}}
