The chemical breakdown of glucose into energy without the involvement of oxygen is called anaerobic respiration.
Sorry but it's next to impossible for me to write the equation here.
Bacteria always use anaerobic respiration.

Some examples of anaerobic respiration include alcohol fermentation, lactic acid fermentation and in decomposition of organic matter. The equation is: glucose + enzymes = carbon dioxide + ethanol / lactic acid. Though it does not produce as much energy as aerobic respiration, it gets the job done.
