TL;DR: The biological transformation, by which organic matter is degraded to methane and carbon dioxide is commonly called “methanogenesis”, and the main product of methanogenesis, a mixture of carbon dioxide and methane, is called ”biogas”.
Abstract: The biological transformation, by which organic matter is degraded to methane and carbon dioxide is commonly called “methanogenesis”. The main product of methanogenesis, a mixture of carbon dioxide and methane, is called “biogas”. The term “biogas” was registered as trade name (Institute of Gas Technology, Chicago, United States), but nevertheless, is commonly used by the public. The technical application of “methanogenesis” in a bio-reactor (or digester) is designated as “biomethanation”. The term “anaerobic digestion” is widely used synonymously, although it may lead to confusion with other anaerobic digestion processes that do not stringently involve generation of methane.

TL;DR: A comparison between two-stage and one-stage AD systems, fed with identical organic substrates and loading rates, focusing the attention on chemical and microbiological aspects finds no significant differences in overall energy recovery.
Abstract: Two-stage anaerobic digestion (AD) for integrated biohydrogen and biomethane production from organic materials has been reported to promise higher process efficiency and energy recoveries as compar...
