It takes just one step to go from biogas to bio natural gas: Processing to natural gas quality.
Biogas is already being produced in plants throughout Germany. The big difference compared to bio natural gas is that biogas can only be used on site. Biogas is usually used to fuel cogeneration power plants to produce electricity. Heat generated in this process can rarely be used and is instead discharged into the environment.
Biogas Becomes Bio Natural Gas
However, if the biogas is processed to bio natural gas using the new approach, it can easily be fed into the existing natural gas pipeline, making it usable throughout Germany. Bio natural gas can be transported easily and used where it is the most effective. This boosts efficiency and protects the environment. If necessary, bio natural gas can be stored like fossil natural gas.
What is Bio Natural Gas Made of?
The most important components for making bio natural gas are renewable natural resources such as corn, grain and grasses which are specially planted for the production of bio natural gas. The most commonly used plants are those bred naturally and specifically for energy production. Liquid manure from livestock farming can also be used for the production of bio natural gas, especially as a fermentation enhancing additive. Other biodegradable waste, like by-products from food production are also suitable, however are not used in our plants.
