Application in details
Renewable compressed natural gas (CNG) is made from animal waste, agricultural crops and crop residues, and food waste.
Since these feedstocks decompose naturally over time, using them to replace carbon-based fossil fuels means that overall emissions can be reduced.
The production process is as follows:
1. Biogas is produced from feedstock (animal and vegetable waste, etc.) using an anaerobic digestion process.
2. The biogas is then processed to ensure that it meets industry standards and converted into DSM.
3. Finally, the DSM is injected into the gas grid.
