Ivys Adsorption has conceptualized containerized and automated Biostream units, which generate renewable natural gas (biomethane) from biogas. This biogas comes from the anaerobic digestion of waste materials in municipal landfills, wastewater treatment plants, and anaerobic digesters processing agricultural and industrial organic wastes.

The Biostream unit has a capacity of 55 to 140 SCFM (90 to 225 NCMH) while the Biostream+ unit has a capacity of 55 to 280 SCFM (90 to 450 NCMH), allowing them to convert biogas into 97%+ pure biomethane, with 98.5%+ methane recovery. These units can be installed and run in parallel for higher capacities with greater flexibility and redundancy.

These innovative and scalable small-scale Biostream units consume significantly less energy when converting biogas to RNG, which supports our clients’ goal to contribute to the worldwide investment in clean energy while enhancing project profitability.
