Biogas Management: Advanced Utilization for Production of Renewable Energy and Added-value Chemicals

Abstract: Biogas is widely available as a product of anaerobic digestion of urban, industrial, animal and agricultural wastes. Its indigenous local-base production offers the promise of a dispersed renewable energy source that can significantly contribute to regional economic growth. Biogas composition typically consists of 35-75% methane, 25-65% carbon dioxide, 1-5% hydrogen along with minor quantities of water vapor, ammonia, hydrogen sulfide and halides. Current utilization for heating and lighting is inefficient and… Show more

“…Even if processes are integrated within the district area, not all valorization solutions may be considered. In general, an option is selected in accordance with the proximity of energy users, the distribution network, the grant mechanisms, and the energy balance [70,71]. The energy balance can be constructed with the heat and electricity needed for the process (pretreatment, self-consumption…), the methane concentration in biogas, and the gain in energy produced by the valorization solution studied [39,72].…”

“…Among the analyzed plants, 63% are competitive in terms of electricity production, and 58% in terms of biomethane production. Electricity production seems to be confirmed as the most interesting opportunity, in a wide range of system sizes, while biomethane production is suitable only for large plants (Bidart et al, 2014;Yentekakis and Goula, 2017).…”

“…However, syngas can also be obtained via the dry reforming of methane (DRM) using biogas as feedstock, which has the attraction of utilizing CH 4 and CO 2 , i.e., the most abundant greenhouse gases (Avraam et al, 2010;Martins et al, 2017;Yentekakis and Goula, 2017).…”
