While plants that produce methane catalytically have been in operation for a long time, biological methanation has just reached industrial pilot scale and near-term commercial application. The growing importance of the biological method is reflected by an increasing number of scientific articles describing novel approaches to improve this technology. However, these studies are difficult to compare because they lack a coherent nomenclature. In this article, we present a comprehensive set of parameters allowing the characterization and comparison of various biological methanation processes. To identify relevant parameters needed for a proper description of this technology, we summarized existing literature and defined system boundaries for Power-to-Methane process steps. On this basis, we derive system parameters providing information on the methanation system, its performance, the biology and cost aspects. As a result, three different standards are provided as a blueprint matrix for use in academia and industry applicable to both, biological and catalytic methanation. Hence, this review attempts to set the standards for a comprehensive description of biological and chemical methanation processes.

The reactor design and system performance was optimized to yield high methane content in the product gas for direct feed-in to the gas grid. The reaction was catalyzed by a pure culture of Methanothermobacter thermoautotrophicus IM5, which formed a biofilm on ceramic packing elements. During 600 h in continuous and semi-continuous operation in countercurrent flow, the 0.05 m3 reactor produced up to 95.3 % of methane at a methane production rate of 0.35 mCH43mR-3h-1. Adding nitrogen as carrier gas during startup, foam control and dosing of ammonium and sodium sulfide as nitrogen and sulfur source were important factors for process automation.

The measurements carried out over a wide spectral range, from visible light down to terahertz radiation. The results make it possible to find the optimum light frequency for an all-optical determination of pulpal blood flow and, consequently, for clinically diagnosis of tooth vitality.

A1 - Schulz, Irene A1 - Schmalz, Gottfried T1 - Detection of pulsed blood flow through a molar pulp chamber and surrounding tissue in vitro JF - Journal of Clinical Oral Investigations N2 - OBJECTIVES Due to severe limitations of dental pulp sensitivity tests, the direct recording of pulsed blood flow, using photoplethysmography (PPG), has been proposed. In vivo evaluation is methodologically difficult and in vitro models have hitherto been adversely influenced by shortcomings in emulating the in vivo situation. Consequently, the aim of this study was to test an improved data acquisition system and to use this configuration for recording pulsed blood in a new model. MATERIALS AND METHODS We introduced a PPG signal detection system by recording signals under different blood flow conditions at two wavelengths (625 and 940 nm). Pulsed blood flow signals were measured using an in vitro model, containing a molar with a glass pulp and a resin socket, which closely resembled in vivo conditions with regard to volumetric blood flow, pulp anatomy, and surrounding tissue. RESULTS The detection system showed improved signal strength without stronger blanketing of noise. On the tooth surface, it was possible to detect signals emanating from pulsed blood flow from the glass pulp and from surrounding tissue at 625 nm. At 940 nm, pulp derived signals were recorded, without interference signals from surrounding tissue. CONCLUSION The PPG-based method has the potential to detect pulsed blood flow in small volumes in the pulp and (at 625 nm) also in adjacent tissues. CLINICAL RELEVANCE The results show the need for clear differentiation of the spatial origins of blood flow signals of any vitality test method to be applied to teeth.
