High-Precision Biogas Analysis for Renewable Energy Applications
Biogas plays an increasingly important role in renewable energy production and grid injection. Depending on feedstock and production process, biogas can contain a wide range of components, including methane, carbon dioxide, permanent gases, light hydrocarbons, sulphur compounds, siloxanes, terpenes and ammonia. Accurate and reliable analysis is essential to ensure process efficiency, equipment protection and compliance with grid specifications.
The GAS Biogas Analyser provides custom-configured GC solutions for comprehensive biogas analysis based on proven GC technology. Configurations range from compact, fast analysers for routine composition and calorific value determination to multi-channel systems for extended trace analysis. All analysers are designed for high uptime, excellent repeatability and full compliance with international standards.
GAS provides several biogas analyser, based on Thermo Trace GC1600 and CompactGC4.0.
Applications
- Supported methods:
GPA 2261, 2177, 2186, 2286, ISO 6974, 6975, ASTM D1945, D1946. - Biogas Composition Analysis
Determine methane, carbon dioxide, permanent gases and light hydrocarbons using TCD and FID detection.
