If cleanly combusted with a good air supply then CO2 and water.
If there is not enough air then Carbon monoxide and Carbon Soot will be produced.

Any time you burn an organic compound (this is a compound containing both carbon and hydrogen), the products of the reaction are carbon dioxide and water vapor and the release of energy. Methane is CH4.
The reaction is:
CH4 + 2O2 --> CO2 + 2H2O + energy

That depends upon how methane is produced.
If it is obtained from natural gas deposits, the by-products are those of mining.
If it is obtained from cracking petroleum, the by-products are petrochemicals.
If it is obtained by fermentation, the by-products are those of bacterial culture.
