This document discusses the future of small scale biogas upgrading using membrane separation technology. Membrane separation is well-suited for small scale upgrading due to its compact size, simple on/off operation, low cost, flexibility, and high uptime with only biannual human interaction needed. New high selective membrane materials can further reduce methane slip to below 1% while achieving over 98% energy efficiency. DMT has developed a small containerized membrane upgrading system called Carborex MS that is low in capital and operating costs and well-suited for remote transportation of biogas or upgraded biomethane through a "virtual pipeline" system.
