As an important source of energy, biogas favourably influences the energy balance and operating costs of sewage treatment plants. The potential use of biogas depends on its composition.
We analyse biogas samples taken from municipal sewage treatment plants using a GA5000 instrument. The following components are determined: CH4 (%), CO2 (%), O2 (%), H2 (ppm) and H2S (ppm).
Price list
For biogas analysis, we charge EUR 85/sample, excluding VAT. The customer is responsibility for taking and transporting biogas samples.
