Be greener. Profitably.

The collaboration between Pentair and Vaisala, leveraging the MGP261 and MGP262 multigas probes, demonstrated the effectiveness of these instruments in verifying the performance of the biogas upgrading system at the Sustainable Fuel Plant site. 

To drive large-scale adoption of biogas as an energy source, its cost must be brought closer to that of conventional energy. That cannot be achieved without improving the efficiency of biogas plants and optimizing their use of heating and electricity.

The climate emergency and the energy crisis are combining to create a perfect storm of global challenges. Urgent international initiatives are therefore underway, and Methane is at the heart of many of them. 

Our ground-breaking instrument, the MGP262 for offgas biomethane was honored with a Highly Commended prize in the Research & Innovation category.

Soaring energy costs and the climate crisis are combining to accelerate the green shift — the migration to renewable energy to reduce our dependency on fossil fuels — and contribute to both climate and sustainable development goals.

The Finnish company Vaisala, whose products include biogas measurement devices for industrial uses, is on the front line of development as the world transitions towards a commercially profitable bio-based economy.

Biomethane is the energy-rich and fossil-free alternative to natural gas. Vaisala is proud to be able to help in this development.

Robust, reliable, and compact, the Vaisala CARBOCAP® MGP262 multigas instrument provides continuous measurement data to help optimize and control the biogas upgrading process for greater biomethane yield, process efficiency, and environmental benefits.

For biogas producers, keeping the process stable while making sure that combined heat and power (CHP) engines and active carbon filters work smoothly is just one of the challenges they have to face. In-line humidity measurement can help answer these challenges – and make biogas production more profitable.

Installing any electrical device in a hazardous location with an explosion risk requires special precautions and procedures – and installing an in situ measurement device into a gas pipeline presents its own specific risks and requirements.
