Greenlane is a world leader in biogas upgrading solutions that provides complete systems to upgrade biogas to renewable natural gas (RNG). They have installed over 90 projects globally. One success story is the Surrey Biofuels Facility in BC, where Greenlane provided an integrated system to upgrade biogas from organic waste to RNG, which is then injected into the local gas pipeline for use as vehicle fuel. Greenlane's modular systems reliably produce high purity RNG that meets pipeline standards through an efficient water scrubbing process.

- 7. What is Biogas& Biomethane (RNG)? Biogas Mixture of gases produced by the break down of organic matter in an oxygen free environment CH4: ~60 % CO2: ~39 % N2+O2: < 1% H2S: 50 – 5,000 ppm H2O: Saturated Siloxanes: Trace Biomethane (RNG) Upgraded biogas that is interchangeable with natural gas CH4: > 96 % CO2: ~1 % O2: < 0.4 % Total inerts: < 4 % H2S: < 1 ppm H2O: < 1 ppm Siloxanes: < 1 ppm

Surrey Biofuels Facility ProjectSite • Source Separated Organics Facility in Surrey BC Objective • Close the loop on the city – reduce/recover organic waste Process • Produce biogas using anaerobic digesters to break down organic waste. • Upgrade biogas to RNG using Greenlane system • Recover CO2 to use as part of the process. RNG Use • Inject into FortisBC pipeline & fuel CNG vehicles.
