Everything from one source The planning, production, installation, testing and ­commissioning of the turnkey biogas preparation plant are carried out by WÄGA Wärme-Gastechnik GmbH as a DVGW G 493-1 certified company located in Kassel, Germany. Layout and acceptance in accordance with DVGW VP 265-1.

Structure of the SeparexTM membrane

Plant technology The gas preparation using SeparexTM diaphragms is based on the principle of solution diffusions. Unlike the filtration process, undesired crude gas components like CO2, H2O and H2S diffuse through the diaphragm and the methane is retained. The result: an absolutely dry gas product conforming to DVGW G 260 with a process pressure of ­approx. 18 bar or higher.
