Green Gas Grid Injection

Project Description

Schoongas Sint Nicholaasga is a joint venture of Biolease (nowadays GrienR), DMT, and Agradu. An existing biogas installation was acquired, upgraded and complemented with a Green Gas installation to supply the upgraded biogas to the national gas grid. The upgraded facility produces more than 2.3 million³ of renewable natural gas annually, which is sufficient to supply all households in the nearby village Sint Nicolaasga with natural gas.

DMT Environmental Technology B.V. was responsible for upgrading the existing biogas installation and the supply of the Green Gas system. As the national gas grid operates in this region at a pressure of 40 bar, CSH supplied a system with a reciprocating compressor, which was oil free to prevent contamination of the national grid with oil traces.
