Biogas Measurement
Differential Pressure Flow Measurement As global oil prices remain high, countries around the globe are seeking renewable energy sources to increase energy efficiency and security. Among the sources of renewable energy is the production of biogas from landfill gas (LFG). To monetize biogas and create the most efficient fuel sources, it is critical to accurately measure how much biogas is produced in each stage of the process. This biogas boom has created an opportunity for industrial gas measurement companiesMany flow measurement companies with varying technologies are interested in measuring the biogas as it leaves the landfill, but precise biogas measurement is an inherently challenging application with its changing gas composition, low pressure and dirty, wet gas that can clog up devices like annubars, orifice plates, turbine meters, thermal mass meter and other similar instruments. The Tek-DPro 1620A Smart Cone Meter has proven itself as the leading measurement technology for this challenging application Features High turn down Low pre mediate pressure loss Not affected by wet gas Minimal straight run piping requirements Compact package, eliminating piping, flow conditioners, flow computers and multiple transmitters
