Practical options for cleaning biogas prior to on-farm use at piggeries

Abstract: Interest in the use of biogas from anaerobic digestion has been increasing within the Australian pork industry in recent years, driven by a significant potential for biogas use to buffer rising energy costs and to reduce carbon emissions from individual piggeries and across the whole pork industry. A recent life cycle assessment study suggested that a 64% reduction in piggery GHG emissions could be achieved by installing biogas capture and use systems. Further Government incentives have also contributed to the… Show more

“…Activated carbon treatment could potentially be used to "polish" the biogas quality after some pretreatment step. However, it is unlikely to be widely used as a single biogas treatment step in piggeries due to the high cost of batch replacement and complexity of regeneration options [86]. By adsorption on an activated carbon bed, H2S is removed from biogas [81].…”
