  • Biogas measurement

Biogas measurement

Biogas measurement involves the precise monitoring and analysis of biogas produced in biogas plants through the fermentation of a wide variety of biomass, such as waste or renewable raw materials. Unlike fossil natural gas, biogas is produced “biologically” and makes an important contribution to the energy transition. After production, it is either used directly to generate electricity, processed and fed into gas distribution networks as biomethane, or used as fuel for vehicles.

With the RGQ 5 biogas analyzer and its counterpart, the RGQ 3 mobile biogas analyzer, RMG Messtechnik GmbH provides a high-precision solution for biogas measurement. Both gas analyzers reliably and efficiently determine key gas quality parameters such as calorific value, methane number, and Wobbe index. The RMG RGQ 3, as a compact, mobile version of the biogas analyzer, is ideal for flexible on-site applications and perfectly complements the stationary applications of the RMG RGQ 5. This measurement technology ensures direct, non-destructive analysis of biogas and meets the highest standards for accuracy and reliability. This enables a high level of operational safety and process stability, particularly during continuous, real-time biogas analysis.

The precise and robust technology of the RGQ series from RMG Messtechnik allows for a detailed determination of biogas quality. This is essential for ensuring safe injection into the gas grid and making optimal use of the energy value. RMG combines many years of expertise with state-of-the-art technology to offer reliable measurement solutions specifically tailored to the requirements of the biogas industry. The devices are ideally suited for biogas monitoring, particularly within automated systems designed to increase efficiency.

Biogas measurement for safe feed-in into the natural gas grid

Biogas measurement using the RGQ 5 and RGQ 3 devices from RMG Messtechnik is essential for the industrial use of biogas, which is produced through microbial degradation processes from organic waste materials. With their precise measurement technology, these devices enable the reliable determination of calorific value, methane content, and Wobbe index —key parameters for quality assurance and the efficient further processing of biogas. These devices are an integral part of plant operations, particularly where operators need to measure biogas on a regular basis.

Thanks to their direct measurement methods, the RGQ 5 and RGQ 3 biogas analyzers deliver stable and accurate readings even with varying gas compositions. The RGQ series is capable of monitoring both CO₂ and H₂ levels. This supports reliable biogas control, enabling even small fluctuations to be detected and regulated early on.

The flexible application of the portable RGQ 3 offers a decisive advantage, particularly for temporary inspections of biogas plants or mobile measurements at various locations. The RGQ 5, on the other hand, is ideally suited for stationary monitoring in biogas plants or at feed-in points to the gas grid. Both RMG gas analyzers ensure that the biogas meets the specific requirements for further processing, whether for power generation, injection into the grid, or use as fuel in engines. In this way, they make an important contribution to continuous biogas monitoring in mission-critical processes.

For a sustainable energy supply

The use of the RGQ 5 and RGQ3 offers decisive advantages for sustainable energy supply and industrial use. With their ability to precisely measure the calorific value, they help to optimize the use of energy. A significant advantage of biogas is its base load capability: unlike wind or solar energy, biogas can be continuously available through storage and thus contribute to stability in the energy mix.

The technical features of the RGQ devices include high-precision measurement technologies for the continuous monitoring of gas quality parameters. They ensure that biogas can be safely fed into the gas grid or used efficiently in combined heat and power plants (CHP). Thanks to their flexibility and precision, the RGQ 5 and RGQ 3 ensure the safe and efficient use of biogas - whether for power and heat generation, as a fuel or for innovative industrial applications.
