No Pipeline for Renewable Natural Gas Projects? No problem. Use Virtual Pipeline Technology
On site biogas production Biogas can be produced from various organic resources of which the most common are agricultural waste, municipal waste, landfills, and wastewater treatment facilities. But biogas upgrading is also very much applicable in the (food & beverage) industry. Through biogas upgrading, trace impurities and carbon dioxide (CO2) in raw biogas are separated from methane (CH4) ...

Biogas-to-biomethane upgrading plant
Chesterfield BioGas (CBG) supplied the UK’s first biogas upgrading plant to produce clean biomethane for direct injection into the national gas grid for use by all consumers. The project was successfully completed and gas injected into the national grid at the wastewater treatment site of Thames Water site at Didcot, Oxfordshire in October 2010. This achievement was a benchmark moment for ...

Landfill Gas to Renewable Natural Gas Project Goes Ahead in Michigan
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. Greenlane Biogas, a developer and supplier of proprietary water ...

Biogas upgrading: Membrane separation takes over
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. In this way, the biomethane can be utilized with the highest energy efficiency. Progressively, effort is being put into the utilization of organic waste streams in anaerobic ...

Harnessing biogas for energy savings
For Santa Cruz Wastewater Treatment Facility (WWTF), dependability matters. Since 1989, this state-of-the-art WWTF, nestled in a shallow canyon in the coastal city of Santa Cruz, Calif., has been leading the way for renewable energy programs and environmental protection in the West. Santa Cruz WWTF generates its own electric power by using internal combustion engines that burn a mixture of ...

Waternet Amsterdam: First biomethane injected in national grid
Milestone achieved at Waternet Asset Management biomethane project The wastewater treatment plant of Waterschap Amstel, Gooi & Vecht, produces biogas. This biogas is upgraded to biomethane using the DMT biogas upgrading technology. The first cubic meter of biomethane was injected into the national grid on March 19th. By achieving this important milestone, the project enters the third and ...

Biogas as an option for industrial applications
Biogas is typically burned to produce electricity or used as vehicle fuel. This case study analyses possibilities to utilise biogas directly in industrial applications to replace current fossil raw materials. True industrial cases are analysed by considering economic impacts of using either landfill gas or gas produced from biomass. Utilisation of biogas is economically viable and technically ...

Biogas cleaning / conditioning - A requirement for optimal functioning of CHP systems
Biogas is obtained through the anaerobic decomposition (putrefaction) of organic matter. It contains methane (CH4) in varying proportions, ranging from 35% to 70%, a proportion which largely depends on production methods and the materials involved in the process. This methane concentration is what enables biogas to be used as fuel. The release of methane into the atmosphere contributes to an ...

Dreyer & Bosse deliver renewable energy CHP project to Sofia in Bulgaria
The Sofia council decided to invest in renewable energy to make use of the many tons of biowaste (vegetative material), 20,000 tons per annum, from the waste removal collections that take place daily in Sofia and surrounding area. To make this possible it was decided to go for wet fermentation where the substrate or raw material ferments and the biogas is collected. After three weeks the ...

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 ...

Utility Dive - Wind and solar power aren’t enough to combat climate change. We need to incentivize firm renewables, too.
The following is a contributed article by George Sakellaris, president and CEO of Ameresco. In a world that continues to grapple with the unfolding effects of climate change and a global energy crisis that shows no signs of slowing, it’s never been more clear that the time to innovate our national approach to energy development is now. For too long, federal U.S. policy has taken a ...
