BIOMETHANE AND LIQUID CO2
Biogas is a key renewable energy source. Pentair is your partner in turning waste streams into sustainable energy solutions and valuable revenue streams.
Pentair BioComplete is a membrane-based biogas upgrading solution which allows for maximum biomethane yield which can produce cost-competitive energy. The robust design and our dedicated service teams with 24/7 support (local and remote) allow for reliable system uptime.
The biomethane can be injected into existing gas grids as a sustainable replacement of fossil natural gas or it can be utilized as fuel – either as Renewable Compressed Natural Gas (Renewable CNG) or Renewable Liquid Natural Gas (Renewable LNG). Utilizing biomethane eliminates fossil fuel-based carbon emissions in industrial and domestic environments, transportation, electricity, and heat production.

PROCESS DESCRIPTION
-
In the pre-treatment, water and contaminants are removed from the biogas. The biogas pre-treatment allows for modest contamination levels of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and volatile organic compounds (VOC) -- for bulk removal of H2S or VOC’s, other options are available. After pre-treatment, the biogas is compressed to the most OPEX and CAPEX efficient pressure that allows for the removal of CO2. The membranes then remove the CO2 from the methane to meet the required Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) specifications.
Upgraded biomethane can be injected into the national grid or further processed to renewable CNG or LNG. The separated CO2 stream is further compressed, purified and liquified to create renewable by-product, bio-CO2. Bio-CO2 has several applications such as for use in perishable goods transportation or to carbonate drinks
