Abstract: The invention relates to a modular, mobile, compact, multi-stage and highly efficient biogas facility, a method for operating a modular biogas facility, and a system for the computer-assisted, decentralized monitoring and control of at least one modular biogas facility. The system can be equipped with modular, local intelligence and a local control unit. The modular biogas facility is provided with a plurality of tanks for accommodating biomass. The tanks can be fluidically connected to one another. Furthermore, at least one gas reservoir is provided for the biogas produced in the modular biogas facility. Each of the tanks is a module in the biogas facility. Each tank can be positioned in a rigid and cuboidal frame, with the cuboidal frame having six side faces. The side faces of the cuboidal frame define an envelope for the tank.

Abstract: In the case of a dielectric barrier discharge lamp, the discharge vessel (1) is composed of an outer bulb (3) and an inner bulb (4) arranged within the outer bulb, with the result that a discharge space (8) filled with a discharge medium is formed between the inner and the outer bulb. Strip-like electrodes (11) are arranged on the outer side, which is remote from the discharge medium, of the wall of the inner bulb (4). Since there are no longer inner electrodes having a dielectric coating and there is no gas-tight current bushing, this concept combines simple manufacture with protection of the outer electrodes, for example against electric shock.
