Biogas upgrading using the DMT Carborex® PWS Technology.
Abstract Gas is an excellent fuel for a large number of applications and can also be used as raw material for the pro- duction of chemicals. Biogas can be used in more or less all the applications that are developed for natural gas. For some of the applications biogas may have to be upgraded. Injection of biogas into the natural gas grid will result in an improved security of supply. This is ...

Using biogas for combined heat and power
An integral part of the majority of anaerobic digestion facilities across the world is the CHP combined heat and power (CHP) engine. For the first time builder of a biogas plant, it is often neglected as the focus is on reducing the capital costs of the installation. However, the engine is integral to the plant, and is the key component in the production of renewable electricity, hence the ...
