WBA Training: Biogas Upgrading Technology/Opportunities – in English
24th May 2022 @ 9:00 am - 11:00 am
£99.00 – £149.00Choosing the best technology solution for your biogas upgrading
Trainer: Mario A. Rosato
Programme
09:00 Differences between cleaning and purification of biogas
- The thermodynamic benchmark: the ideal Van t’Hof machine in the case of perfect and imperfect gas separation
- Minimum work and minimum heat of imperfect separation
- The ideal work of compression
- The ideal work of liquefaction
10:00 Comparing different real-life processes under different operational conditions: case study.
a) Dry upgrading technologies
- Activated carbon (PSA, pressure swing adsorption)
- Engineered zeolites
- Bed-packed amines
- Selective membranes
b) Wet upgrading technologies
- Water scrubbing
- Water/PEG scrubbing (Selexol process)
- Alkaline scrubbing (Benfield process)
- Amine scrubbing
- Solvent scrubbing (Rectisol process)
c) Emerging technologies
- Cryogenic upgrading
- Bioupgrading
- electromethanogenesis
10:40 Selection of the most suitable process in each context
A summary of each technology and how to assess which process is most suited to your project
