Gas detection in the Biogas sector helps ensure safety in the presence of toxic and explosive gases emitted during the anaerobic digestion process. Early detection of gas leaks or abnormal concentrationd helps to protect workers, prevent environmental contamination and maintain operational integrity in biogas production facilities.

Gases typically monitored within the Biogas Sector include;

  • Ammonia (NH3) 
  • Hydrogen Sulphide (H2S)
  • Methane (CH4)
  • Oxygen (O2)
  • Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2)
  • Oxygen (O2)
  • Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs)

Applications for gas detection and monitoring in the Biogas sector include;

Gas monitoring helps maintain optimal conditions for anaerobic digestion, where microorganisms break down organic matter to produce biogas. Monitoring gases such as Methane (CH4), Hydrogen Sulphide (H2S) and Oxygen (O2) enable operators to adjust process parameters and maximise biogas yields from various feedstocks.

Biogas facilities handle potentially toxic gases, posing safety risks to personnel and the surrounding environment. Gas monitoring systems detect gas leaks and abnormal concentrations of gases such as H2S, allowing operators to implement safety measures, prevent accidents, and protect workers and communities.

Gas explosion protection is paramount in the Biogas sector due to the presence of combustible gases generated during the anaerobic digestion process. Protection typically requires a multi-faceted approach, combining gas detection, ventilation, equipment design, safety procedures, and emergency preparedness to minimise the risk of accidents and ensure the safety of personnel and facilities.

Biogas production is subject to environmental regulations governing emissions of greenhouse gases and air pollutants. Gas monitoring helps quantify emissions of CH4, H2S and other gases, ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements and demonstrating commitment to environmental stewardship through effective emissions management.

Gas monitoring systems provide valuable insights into process performance, allowing operators to identify operational inefficiencies, equipment malfunctions, and maintenance needs. Timely detection of issues enables corrective actions to be taken, optimising process efficiency, minimising downtime, and maximising overall productivity.
