Challenge: Preventing Freezing in High-Pressure Natural Gas Pipelines National Grid operates city gate stations responsible for delivering natural gas to commercial and residential customers. To maximize throughput in transmission pipelines, high-pressure ...
The global drive towards renewable energy sources has gained remarkable momentum in recent years. As the world grapples with the urgent need to mitigate climate change and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, the renewable energy movement has emerged as a beacon of hope. Within this transformative landscape, advanced gas analysis techniques have assumed a pivotal role in ensuring the efficiency, ...
In the dairy industry, the production of biogas can be profitable, even for small farms Dairy farms must deal with wastewater that’s particularly high in organic matter and that can be challenging to deal with. However, establishing an on-farm anaerobic digestion plant that generates biogas from cattle slurry offers several benefits: It captures methane and converts it into a renewable ...
For example, biogas produced from wastewater treatment plants can now be cleaned to meet natural gas quality standards and injected into the natural gas grid. ...
Through biogas upgrading, trace impurities and carbon dioxide (CO2) in raw biogas are separated from methane (CH4) to produce pipeline-specification RNG suitable for injection into the natural gas grid or direct use for vehicle fuel. By upgrading the raw biogas produced in this gasification process, this raw biogas is turned into a very efficient ...
However, we still have coal plants on the grid that supply much of our power during the day, which substantially cuts into PV's potential 1/3 share. ...
H2 can be stored directly, in the underground in caverns, or it can be fed into the natural gas grid leading to a blend of natural gas and H2. Up to 5% H2 currently is allowed, but numbers up to 10% have been proposed for the near future. ...
Biogas can also be upgraded to biomethane (>99% methane) for compression and injection into the natural gas grid or for use as a transport fuel. AD plant operators can also generate income by exporting electricity to the grid, by selling heat or biogas to local businesses or communities, and by charging a gate fee for incoming ...

Overview of the gas upgrading plant in Köckte The EnviThan gas upgrading plant in the district Altmarkkreis Salzwedel in Saxony-Anhalt is the first fully integrated biogas upgrading plant of EnviTec Biogas AG to create biomethane using the membrane-based process and to be injected into the public natural gas ...
Abstract Due to governmental incentives and growing environmental awareness, it becomes increasingly attractive to upgrade biogas to natural gas quality and inject it into the natural gas grid or to use it as transport fuel. ...
The current trend in countries such as Switzerland, the Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Norway, Finland, Sweden, the United States and others, is to focus on the production of biogas as a substitute for natural gas, for grid injection or to power motorised vehicles. Natural gas is found underground in the ...
However, as well as methane, fossil natural gas in the gas grid contains other hydrocarbons such as butane, propane and ethane. This gives grid gas an energy content, or calorific value (CV), that is higher than biomethane. To meet grid specification, the CV of biomethane must be ...
In countries with a stable electricity grid, lighting and heating are taken for granted; but the desire for cleaner energy is highlighting how dirty grid electricity is around the world, and concerns over the future of nuclear power are adding to the debate. Many countries also have a network that distributes natural gas, and ...
Greenlane Biogas, a subsidiary of the Flotech Group of companies (founded in 1986), is pleased to confirm that it recently has received an order to build two 'Totara+' landfill gas upgrading systems to process 3200 scfm (approximately 5150 Nm3/hr) of gas to be injected into a local natural gas pipeline near Detroit Michigan. ...
To enhance the usability of biogas it should be upgraded to natural gas quality which is done by removal of carbon dioxide from the biogas. ...
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 important since dependence on imported ...
To be able to use the biogas as vehicle fuel or to distribute it in natural gas grids the gas has to becleaned and upgraded. The biogas is upgraded by removing carbon dioxide to raise the calorific value and create a gaswith constant quality. ...
Indeed, some of the information used at a regional level has a spatial representation (e.g. district heating, electricity grid, natural gas network, traffic, public transport, etc.). We have defined a model structure that allows spatial modelling through the use of integer programming techniques in association with a linkage to a geographical ...
