An overview of biomethanation and the use of membrane technologies as a candidate to overcome H mass transfer limitations.

Energy produced from renewable sources such as sun or wind are intermittent, depending on circumstantial factors. This fact explains why energy supply and demand do not match. In this context, the interest in biomethanation has increased as an interesting contribution to the Power-to-gas concept (P2G), transforming the extra amount of produced electricity into methane (CH).
