[Term] Ultimate methane potential [Explanation] 
A standard laboratory technique used to measure the anaerobic biodegradability and associated methane yield from a given substrate. The test is run until no further gas production is detected and can last up to 100 days. The results can be influenced by the substrate concentration and particle size, the inoculum source, the food to microorganism ratio, and the presence or build-up of inhibitory compounds among others. (Also known as ultimate biomethane potential, BMP, and Bo.)
