Overview
A biogas compressor spends most of its life dealing with what is in the gas rather than with the gas itself. Raw biogas from anaerobic digestion or landfill is saturated with water, carries hydrogen sulphide, ammonia, siloxanes and particulates, and its composition drifts with feedstock, temperature and season. The compressor is the last component in the chain that still has moving parts, so it inherits every upstream problem.
TUKE ENERGY engineers biogas and biomethane compressors starting from the gas analysis and the upstream pre-treatment concept. Moisture is handled with cooling, separation, coalescing and automatic drain, with level monitoring and interlocks on drain failure because condensate carry-over is the most common cause of valve damage on a biogas machine. H2S and its corrosion consequences drive material selection, and siloxane content drives the operating temperature and cleanliness requirements.
Downstream of an upgrading unit, biomethane duty is closer to CNG: the machine must reach high pressure for vehicle fuelling or grid injection, and the design then emphasises stage count, discharge temperature, sealing and dependable part-load control, because methane plants rarely run at a constant rate.
The delivered scope is a complete package — suction and inter-stage separation with automatic drain, cooling, instrumentation, safety valves, PLC control with alarm and trip matrix, and skid or container mounting with heating and trace heating for cold climates.
Typical applications
- Biogas and biomethane upgrading for grid injection and vehicle fuel
- Digester, landfill and sewage gas boosting
- Agricultural and waste-to-energy gas projects
Key features
Design driven by gas analysis: water, H2S, ammonia, siloxanes and particulates
Cooling, coalescing, separation and automatic drain with level interlocks
Material selection matched to H2S content and corrosion risk
Operating temperature and cleanliness managed for siloxane-bearing gas
Biomethane and CNG-grade boosting after upgrading, with high discharge pressure capability
Part-load capacity control suitable for variable feedstock output
Full instrumentation, safety valves and PLC control with alarm and trip matrix
Skid or container package with heating and trace heating for cold sites
Technical specifications
- Media: raw biogas, landfill gas, upgraded biomethane, CO2-rich digester gas
- Pre-treatment interface: coordinated with the customer’s desulphurisation, drying and upgrading units
- Discharge pressure: from low-pressure boosting to CNG-grade high pressure per project
- Construction: reciprocating, multi-stage with intercooling and automatic drain
Selection and design notes
Biogas is saturated with water vapour and can carry hydrogen sulphide and siloxanes, so gas pre-treatment, condensate removal and automatic drain monitoring dominate the package design.
Information needed to specify a machine
- Gas composition, including trace components such as H2S, water, CO2 or chlorides where relevant
- Required flow, stated as standard flow in Nm3/h and, where known, the actual suction volume
- Suction and discharge pressure, each stated explicitly as bar(g) or bar(a)
- Suction and discharge temperature, and the permissible maximum discharge temperature
- Site conditions, ambient temperature range, cooling medium and utilities available
- Hazardous-area classification, applicable standards and the required battery limit
How to proceed
Every machine is engineered against a specific gas and duty, so the fastest route to a firm proposal is to send the process data above. Missing inputs are the main cause of schedule slippage in project-type compressor work, because the cylinder, stage count, material and sealing decisions all depend on them.
