Process Analytics supports Clean Energy Technology


Sales release - Ultramat 23 for Biogas application

Biogas produced from either anaerobic digestion or fermentation process is a viable fuel product now used by many industries within the U.S. market place. Raw biogas is a wet gas mixture primarily of methane, carbon dioxide & oxygen and can include trace levels of other constituents such as ammonia, hydrogen sulfide & some aromatics. The raw biogas is dehydrated and scrubbed in order to be a usable fuel gas for boilers, and for gensets (recip engine/generator) that produce electricity to be sold or used directly. Hydrogen sulfide is undesirable in biogas fuel because it can damage the internal parts of combustion engines, and boiler gas burners. The Ultramat 23 which can already measures the CH4, CO2, & O2, now is available to include an electrochemical sensor for trace ppm measurement of hydrogen sulfide.

Process Analytics support higher yields in biogas plants

The ULTRAMAT 23 gas analyzer with integral hydrogen sulfide sensor is ideally suited to the simple and continuous monitoring of biogas plants.  For the various measurement points used in biogas applications ULTRAMAT 6, OXYMAT 6, gas chromatographs MicroSAM and SITRANS CV, and for special applications the MAXUM Ed II are also used for analytical purposes. 
Case Study

Carbon Dioxide Capture and Storage (CCS) basics and technologies

CCS is discussed as and option to develop clean energy technologies and reduce greenhouse emissions.  Different solutions are under test or development.
