In this case study, we explore how EcoVapor, a DNOW Company, collaborated with Regenis to create Maine’s first biogas-to-RNG facility for Peaks Renewables, located at the state’s largest dairy farm. The Challenge: Summit Natural Gas of Maine, the RNG buyer, has strict limits on oxygen content, making oxygen removal crucial for commercial sales and pipeline injection.…
In this brief case study, we cover how EcoVapor, a DNOW Company, partnered with Regenis to design and build the first biogas-to-RNG facility for Peaks Renewables in Maine at that state’s largest dairy. The Challenge: The RNG buyer, Summit Natural Gas of Maine, imposes a stringent limit on oxygen content, making oxygen removal essential for…
While biogas is commonly used for generating site power and heat, biogas in its raw form is not a substitute for commercial natural gas due to its relatively low methane (energy) content and the presence of various contaminants. Typical biogas contains 40-60% methane with the balance composed principally of carbon dioxide, but also inert compounds…
Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) offers a significant energy and environmental opportunity and, unlike geologic natural gas produced from oil and gas wells, RNG is produced in many states across the nation, not just limited to the states with favorable geology. RNG is sourced primarily from gases emitted from wastewater recovery, organic material, landfills (LFG) and…
Exciting news on the RNG front! EcoVapor is installing a ZerO2 oxygen removal unit at a dairy in the Rocky Mountain region to decontaminate biogas and upgrade it to Renewable Natural Gas (RNG). The Deoxo Drying capability is required for the RNG to meet local pipeline specification. This is a big step forward for…
