When biomethane serves the circular economy

WHEN BIOMETHANE SERVES THE CIRCULAR ECONOMY

Through its technologies and competencies along the entire biomethane value chain, Air Liquide purifies biogas from the fermentation of organic and agricultural waste to obtain biomethane. It is then injected into the domestic grid or liquefied for transportation, storage and distribution as a clean alternative fuel or as industrial fuel. In 2020, new developments were launched in Italy, in the UK, in Norway and in the United States, where the existing production units also ramped up. Air Liquide has 20 biomethane production units around the world with an annual production capacity of 1.3 TWh.
