Trials completed - Manual and Auto Regeneration Units

The first BGMK (BioGas manual Kleen filter unit) and BGAK (BioGas auto Kleen filter) have now  completed successful trials at a Sewage Treatment Works (STW) in Trowbridge, UK and a Landfill (LF) site in Humberside E.Yorkshire.

During the trials both gas, plug and oil data were collected and analysed independently. The results show that both types of siloxane filter units cleaned the BioGas of Siloxane contaminates. Both sites showed a level of well below 8 mg/m3 of contamination after treatment, and well within major engine manufacturers contaminated BioGas guidelines.

Bill Cowing, Director of Sales and Marketing commented “We now have the independent engine data to back up all the early results gained during pre-production trials. Both units performed to design parameters and beyond. We now have a substantial order book to full fill for customers in the UK, Europe and USA. Releasing these units to the market will allow our customers to cost effectively treat BioGas for all installations, gas flows and contamination. It is important milestone for PpTek in this market”.

BioGas Filters are available now to treat gas flows from 75 m3 / hr to over 2000 m3 / hr, cost effectively treating Landfill and STW BioGas.
