[Digestion] Confusing abbreviations

[Duncan Martin]

Hence my warning against abbreviations!

But this one is a bit too close for comfort I agree. If Coal Bed Methane is 
known as CBM and Compressed BioMethane might also be, confusion could arise.

I think there's consensus on Biomethane for purified biogas, one word, as 
per my proposal and confirmed by Ken's Google search.

How about High Pressure or Pressurized Biomethane (instead of Compressed)? 
The abbreviations HPBM or CBM could still be used, even with biomethane as 
one word. (Note that Landfill Gas is almost always LFG, although landfill is 
almost always one word.)

However, HPB/CB.
