Biogas measurement devices
As global oil prices remain high, countries around the globe are seeking renewable energy sources to increase energy efficiency and security. Among the sources of renewable energy is the production of biogas from landfill gas (LFG) or digester gas. To monetize biogas and create the most efficient fuel sources, it is critical to accurately measure how much biogas is produced in each stage of the ...

Precise biogas flow measurement: Overcoming the challenges of changing gas composition
INTRODUCTION As oil prices remain high, we are in the midst of a nation-wide initiative to seek renewable sources of energy to increase energy efficiency and energy security. Renewable energy accounted for 13.2% of the domestically produced electricity in 2012. Among the sources of renewable energy is the production of biogas from landfill gas (LFG) or digester gas. The production of biogas is ...

Modelling of anaerobic digester biogas production: case study of a pilot project in Morocco
An anaerobic digestion pilot system was implemented in June 2010 in the Moroccan village of Dayet Ifrah. The input material consists of toilet wastewater and cattle manure. Biogas is produced under anaerobic conditions. It is used for heating and cooking. This biogas system could be an useful sanitation technology due to its ability to treat wastewater. The biogas system was monitored over 86 ...

Capturing biogas from landfills – Case Study
Each day, millions of tons of municipal solid wastes are disposed of in sanitary landfills and dump sites around the world. Over 1,200 landfills worldwide collect landfill gas, which reduces greenhouse gas emissions and accrues emissions credits to meet the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) reporting standards. Many also use this captured biogas as a clean energy source in the ...

The Future of Biogas: Why Biogas Analyzers are Key to Advancements in Renewable Energy
As the world continues to shift towards sustainable energy sources, biogas is emerging as a valuable and versatile renewable energy option. Biogas is produced through the decomposition of organic matter, such as agricultural waste and sewage, and can be used to generate electricity, heat, and fuel. However, to get the most out of this resource, it is crucial to understand and monitor the quality ...

Quantification of leakage in batch biogas assays
Avoiding leaks is essential for accurate measurement of biogas production by batch assays. Here we present a simple method for detecting leaks and correcting results, based on the change in bottle mass during incubation. Three experiments were carried out using pure chemicals, wastewater sludge, and other complex substrates to test and demonstrate the method, and leaks were detected in all ...

Ensuring Safety and Compliance in Biogas Facilities: The Role of Biogas Analyzer
Biogas has emerged as a promising renewable energy source with significant environmental benefits. It is produced through the anaerobic digestion of organic materials such as agricultural waste, food scraps, and sewage sludge. Biogas predominantly consists of methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2), along with traces of impurities like hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and moisture. While biogas offers ...

New technology enables biogas plant optimization
Governments around the world are seeking to lower greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the fight against climate change, to reduce waste to landfill, and to increase their utilisation of renewable energy in compliance with international agreements. Consequently, in many countries, subsidies have been made available to encourage the growth of the biogas sector. According to the International ...
