Teknik för biogasanvändningPersson, Carl, Saavedra, Alejandro January 2009 (has links)
<p>This thesis is made by Carl Persson and Alejandro Saavedra for Gryaab. Gryaab is Gothenburg’s water processing plant and produces about 60 GWh biogas annually with a flow around 1150 Nm3/h. Gryaab wants to research their possibilities to become independent with electrical energy and the possibilities to enrich, upgrade biogas. The use of methane rich gases like biogas and natural gas is today low in Sweden compared to major parts of the world. Natural gas is one of the most established energy sources in the world, it contributes to about a quarter of the world energy supply. In Sweden natural gas only contributes about 2 % of the energy supply. The natural gas in Sweden is being imported from Denmark and the gas net goes from Malmo to Gothenburg. Usage of gas in that region is about 20 % of total energy usage. There are a total of 26 municipalities along the south- and west coast. Biogas is climate neutral and all infrastructures being used today with natural gas can potentially be used with biogas. The purpose of this thesis is to examine old and new technology intended to harvest energy in biogas and compare these technologies in a decision matrix. We have chosen two areas, combined heat and power (CHP) and upgrading biogas. In this report there are short reviews of heat engines, gas turbines, fuel cells, PSA, scrubbers, cryogenics, internal methane enrichment, ecologic lung, sulphide- and water removal. Interesting and appropriate technologies for Gryaab might be high temperature fuel cells, like molten carbonate fuel cells, or big gas engines in MW range, like Jenbacher J624 GS, in combined heat and power. These CHP systems are flexible in fuel quality, the biogas only need simpler purification, and they have a high electrical efficiency. To upgrade biogas to vehicle gas quality are water scrubbers, PSA and cryogenics all good choices. Cryogenically treated biogas gives liquid or combusted methane and liquid carbon dioxide as a byproduct.</p><p>Det här examensarbetet är gjort av Alejandro Saavedra och Carl Persson åt Gryaab.

Nya renings- och uppgraderingstekniker för biogasBenjaminsson, Johan January 2006 (has links)
<p>Biogas is a renewable energy source that is produced by anaerobic digestion of organic mate-rial. In Sweden, biogas predominately comes from sewage water sludge and landfills or from organic waste of households and industries. Small scale digestion plants at farms are espe-cially expected to contribute to increased biogas production in the future. Biogas can be ob-tained directly in it’s raw form and used as fuel in a combustion chamber. However, gas en-gines require biogas purification from hydrogen sulphide and drying from water to avoid cor-rosion. In order to increase the calorific value, carbon dioxide is separated and the Swedish Standard Type A requires the methane content to be 97 % for vehicle gas.</p><p>In the gas treatment process from biogas to vehicle gas, the upgrading step when carbon diox-ide is separated represents the highest cost since conventional upgrading techniques require high investments. This makes the upgrading costs for smaller biogas plants relatively high. In this master thesis, six upgrading methods have been evaluated and four of them are expected to be commercialized within two years. The following upgrading methods are of interest for Sweden:</p><p>- In situ methane enrichment; air desorbs carbon dioxide from the sludge in a</p><p>desorption column. The method is intended for digestion of sewage water sludge and the total upgrading cost is approximately 0,13 kr/kWh by a raw biogas flow 62,5 Nm3/h.</p><p>- Small scale water scrubber; carbon dioxide is absorbed in water under enhanced pressure.
