  • Publication number: 20060213370
    Abstract: This document discusses, among other things, a mobile biogas processing system that includes a mobile platform, a compressor physically coupled to the mobile platform, a pump physically coupled to the mobile platform and having a water input and a water output, and scrubber tower physically coupled to the mobile platform and having input connected to the compressor and water pump. In examples, the mobile platform is a skid or a combination of skids, a trailer, or a shipping container. An example method of using a mobile biogas processing system includes coupling a first biogas compressor, first scrubber, second scrubber, and flash tank to a mobile platform and delivering the platform and system components to a biogas site. In an example, the system includes its own water supply and burns biogas or crude methane to power pumps, compressors, and other components.
