From Waste to Worth

Biogas → Natural Gas
Transforming environmental liabilities into renewable assets — where data, engineering, and strategy meet to power a sustainable future.

The Problem (Why this matters)

Organic waste creates biogas, but it contains CO₂ and H₂S that make it weak and corrosive. Without cleanup, it can’t be moved in pipelines or used efficiently.

The Idea (What was tested)

Evaluation of commercial adsorbents and a Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) process to remove CO₂/H₂S and
boost methane content.
Target: >90% methane = stronger fuel with lower emissions.

The Process (How it was done)

• Designed the test plan & bench‑scale setup.
• Selected and tested adsorbents
(example zeolites, activated carbon, metal oxides).
• Collected and analyzed breakthrough curves.
• Compared performance to pick the best path for biogas cleanup.

The Results

• Methane up, Impurities down: cleanup raised usable energy content
• H₂S removal: Protected pipes and equipment from corrosion.
• Pathway to pipelines: Composition moved closer to natural gas.
• Scalable concept: Lab results inform real‑world upgrading systems
