What is Biogas Upgrading?

Biogas plants primarily function by breaking down organic materials such as agricultural waste, food scraps, manure, and sewage in an oxygen-free environment through a process called anaerobic digestion. This decomposition produces biogas—a mixture of methane and carbon dioxide—alongside nutrient-rich biofertilisers. Biogas upgrading refers to the processing of raw biogas to remove any impurities and moisture, to transform it into high-quality biomethane that meets the stringent gas specification requirements stipulated by the gird infrastructure provider. This purified gas is then blended into the gas grid network.

Biomethane is a clean form of biogas consisting of > 98% methane.

The Upgrading Process.

From waste to clean, usable energy.

Pre-Treatment

The raw biogas enters the plant, is cooled and dehumidified, before removing Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC’s) and Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S) through the use of activated carbon filters.

Compression

Pre-treated biogas is compressed to the required pressure for the final upgrading process. This process ensures consistent supply and distribution of renewable biogmethane alongside conventional natural gas, promoting a more sustainable energy mix.

Upgrading - from Biogas to Biomethane.

The upgrading section of the plant can consist of a 2 or 3 stage membrane system, whereby CO2 and biomethane are separated into concentrated gas streams for final processing. Biomethane is then purified to network quality and CO2 is reprocessed for maximum biomethane recovery. Depending on the application, CO2 can be recovered for industrial users.

Grid Injection

Once the biomethane reaches the desired specification, it is blended with natural gas within the gas network. This process occurs seamlessly with minimal downtime and consistent monitoring by an intelligent control system, ensuring the safe, continuous and uninterrupted plant operation.
