BioMethan® Upgrading Processes

Membrane separation Amine Scrubbing

Electrical power driven process Heat driven process

HZI RG overview presentation - Nils Lannefors, July 21 13

BioMethan® amine scrubbing
Heat-driven process, highest biomethane purity

Standard plant sizes:

125, 250, 500, 700, 1’000,
1’400, 2’000 m3/h

Uses a reagent that chemically

binds to the CO2 molecule and
separates it from the gas

Methane slippage < 0.1%

Biomethane purity > 99%

Pressure free technology with

outlet pressure 0.1 – 0.15 bar

HZI RG overview presentation - Nils Lannefors, July 21 14

BioMethan® Amine Scrubbing

1. Raw gas pipeline 10. Table-top cooler

2. Cooling and drying of raw gas with condensate discharge and pre-compression 11. Heat exchanger
3. Desulphurisation 12. CO2 separator
4. Amine scrubbing column (CO2 separation from methane) 13. Heat input for regeneration process
5. Regenerated amine scrubbing solution 14. Drying and compression of biomethane
6. Scrubbing solution amine rich 15. Fine drying
7. Biomethane pipeline 16. Gas flare
8. Container with regeneration process of amine scrubbing solution 17. Injection unit
9. CO2 utilisation in various applications 18. Public gas grid

HZI RG overview presentation - Nils Lannefors, July 21 15

BioMethan® membrane separation
Electricity-driven process with membranes

Standard plant sizes:

125, 250, 500, 700, 1’000,
1’400, 2’000 m3/h

Membranes retain the methane

while the carbon dioxide
physically permeates through
the membrane

Methane slippage < 0.5%

Biomethane purity > 97%

Outlet pressure 6 – 16 bar

In parallell with HZI´s EPC business we

also have a business development
department
For Biogas HZI has two references in
commercial operation based on a Build
Own Operate scheme
Business development & financing for
these projects 100% managed by HZI
supported by partners The HZI San Luis Obispo biogas plant in California USA
