Double Membrane Biogas Holder for a Bio-CNG Plant: Provides the Crucial Buffer Storage for Low-Pressure Gas Before the Upgrading and Compression Stages

Double Membrane Biogas Holder for a Bio-CNG Plant: Provides the Crucial Buffer Storage for Low-Pressure Gas Before the Upgrading and Compression Stages

A Bio-CNG Plant (Compressed Natural Gas from Biogas) represents the highest value recovery route for biogas, transforming the raw, low-pressure gas into a high-quality, high-pressure transportation fuel. This process involves two critical stages: upgrading (removing impurities to achieve near-methane purity) and compression. Both stages require a crucial buffer storage solution between the anaerobic digesters and the processing equipment. This buffer must handle the low-pressure, variable output of the digesters while ensuring a stable, regulated feed to the sensitive and expensive upgrading and compression units.

The Double Membrane Biogas Holder is the essential component filling this role. It provides the crucial buffer storage for low-pressure gas before the upgrading and compression stages. Installed as an external, free-standing unit or integrated with the digester, this flexible holder manages the substantial, fluctuating gas volume. By providing a stable pressure and flow rate to the downstream equipment, the system maximizes the efficiency of the upgrading process, protects the high-pressure compressors from surges and drops, and ultimately ensures the continuous, cost-effective production of Bio-CNG.

Shijiazhuang Zhengzhong Technology Co., Ltd. (Center Enamel), a global leader in advanced containment solutions, specializes in engineering high-performance storage systems. Our Double Membrane Biogas Holders are state-of-the-art gas holders designed to integrate seamlessly within the infrastructure of a Bio-CNG plant, offering superior containment, pressure regulation, and long-term durability.

Product Advantages for Bio-CNG Pre-Processing

Center Enamel’s Double Membrane Biogas Holders are meticulously engineered to support the rigorous demands of a Bio-CNG facility, maximizing efficiency and minimizing downtime for high-value operations.

Crucial Buffer and Flow Stabilization

The primary advantage for a Bio-CNG plant is the holder's ability to act as the crucial buffer storage unit. Raw biogas production is inherently variable, but upgrading and compression units require a stable, continuous flow and regulated low-pressure supply. The holder's dynamic, flexible volume absorbs production peaks and troughs, ensuring the gas-upgrading equipment (like scrubbers or membranes) operates at its optimal, steady-state design point. This directly translates to higher methane purity and greater operational efficiency.

High-Volume, Flexible Capacity

Bio-CNG plants are typically large-scale, requiring storage capacity for significant gas volumes. The balloon's design provides high-volume, flexible storage capacity that can dynamically expand and contract to accommodate the substantial gas fluctuations typical of large AD systems. This capability allows the plant to continue digestion during temporary shutdowns of the upgrading equipment, minimizing costly flaring and maximizing the utilization of the produced fuel.

Inherent Safety and Durability

The system is designed to handle low-pressure gas, making it inherently safe compared to high-pressure metal storage vessels, reducing risk in the initial handling stage. The robust, double-membrane architecture ensures exceptional structural resilience. The outer membrane is air-supported to form a rigid, protective dome, shielding the inner gas-holding membrane from external environmental stresses, including high winds and precipitation, guaranteeing long-term durability with low maintenance requirements.
