Biomethane plant

Biogas Upgrading and Biomethane Liquefaction to BioLNG

From biomass to biomethane

The Biogas produced by the fermentation of organic waste (sewage sludge, agricultural and livestock waste, urban organic waste – OFMSW) can be purified to obtain biomethane. This biomethane can then be used as fuel for vehicles or injected into the natural gas grid.

Why producing biomethane?

Green Energy
Generated from renewable sources, easy to store and distribute.
Decarbonisation:
Reduces greenhouse gas emissions.
Circular economy
Provides economic valorisation of waste.

Biogas upgrading plant

 

Our upgrading plant purifies biogas to produce biomethane using a hybrid system combining water scrubber and membrane technologies. .

 

By optimizing the process with a water-scrubbing stage followed by dual membrane purification, this hybrid system reduces operational costs (10% less compared to three-stage membrane systems), ensuring continuous operation at maximum yield with methane recovery above 99.5%..

Biomethane liquefaction plant

The biomethane liquefaction plant produces high-quality, stable bioLNG for transport:

· Can cool bioLNG to –200 °C at low operating pressures (2–4 barg or lower)

· High energy efficiency compared to other cryogenic processes

· Highly eco-friendly: no ozone depletion, greenhouse effect, or toxic gas emissions

· Efficient removal of non-condensable gases (N₂, O₂, H₂, etc.)

· “Plug & play” modular design (1 to 20 tpd modules)

· Scalable to future demand

· Integrated purification + liquefaction solution

· No process fluid contacts mechanical parts—zero contamination risk

· High uptime (> 8,400 h/year)

· Intrinsically redundant design with multiple modules

· Equipment certified by BV, ABS, and USCG
