NH3 Removal System for Biogas Upgrading

Understanding NH3 and Its Harmful Effects:

NH3, or ammonia, is a colorless gas with a pungent odor. It is formed during the breakdown of nitrogen-containing organic compounds in anaerobic conditions, commonly found in biogas production from diverse sources. While NH3 may be present in small quantities in biogas, elevated levels can have detrimental effects on the biogas upgrading process and end-use applications.

Harmful Effects of NH3 in Biogas:

Corrosion and Equipment Damage: NH3 is corrosive and can cause damage to equipment, including pipes, valves, and gas processing units. This corrosion can lead to increased maintenance costs, decreased system efficiency, and shortened equipment lifespan.
Reduced Biogas Quality: NH3 affects the overall quality of biogas, impacting its calorific value and energy density. High NH3 levels can lower the efficiency of biogas utilization, leading to decreased energy production and reduced economic viability.
Environmental Impact: NH3 emissions have negative environmental implications. When released into the atmosphere, NH3 can contribute to air pollution, ecosystem disturbances, and nutrient imbalances. By removing NH3 from biogas, GraniteFuel Engineering helps minimize these environmental impacts and creates a sustainable fuel source in renewable natural gas.
