Cenergy Solutions Introduces Proprietary Biomethane ANG Storage System
Cenergy Solutions is introducing a complete ANG system to capture, store, transport and use biomethane worldwide. Cenergy estimates that 1 trillion cubic meters of natural gas and 1.6 trillion cubic meters of biogas are vented or burned worldwide each year from oil wells and biogas digesters, this does not include the biogas that goes uncaptured.
Cenergy Solutions’ low- pressure adsorbent natural gas and biogas technology can economically capture, store, transport and utilize this wasted energy in vehicles, for cooking, heating and to power manufacturing and power plants.
Once this wasted gas is captured it can replace gasoline, diesel, and coal, as well as liquid propane gas (LPG) which is used around the world as a vehicle fuel, cooking, and other energy applications. Cenergy has a new system to fill tanks, which will replace LPG tanks, comprised of a CSA and UL certified natural gas compressor, DOT compliant tanks, a manifold system for filling several tanks at once and a proprietary valve and patent pending filter. Any application where LPG is used can be replaced with biomethane stored and transported in Cenergy Solutions’ ANG tanks.
“Throughout the world most countries rely heavily on LPG to supply their citizens the energy they need,” said Gary Fanger, COO of Cenergy Solutions. “Now countries have the option to supply their population with biomethane that is made on their farms, landfills and wastewater treatment plants with Cenergy’s ANG distribution system.”
Cenergy Solutions has signed their first licensing agreement with a biogas plant in India which currently makes over two tons of methane per day and is increasing their production to ten tons of methane per day. Using ANG tanks filled with biomethane will be a significant savings for the biogas plant and the customers they serve.
Cenergy Solutions’ adsorbent natural gas and biogas technology allows for the storage of methane molecules in a dense state at low pressures. Three to five times the amount of natural gas or biogas can be stored in an ANG tank as in a conventional CNG tank at the same pressure. Cenergy Solutions has filed patents for its ANG technology in 62 strategic countries.
