Air Products , the global leader in the production of gas separation and purification membranes announced the launch of the new PRISM® GreenSep liquefied natural gas (LNG) membrane separator for bio-LNG production.
“As the world’s leading supplier of technology for the LNG industry, the PRISM® GreenSep LNG membrane separator is an excellent addition to our expansive catalogue of solutions for LNG producers,” said Dr. Erin Sorensen, General Manager, Air Products Membrane Solutions. “This cutting-edge technology will deliver a higher LNG yield at a lower operational cost, while also furthering our common goal of building a safer, cleaner, more productive world.”
PRISM® GreenSep LNG membrane separators eliminate the need for intermediate purification technologies such as amine scrubbing or thermal swing adsorption during bio-LNG production, allowing for a higher yield of bio-LNG while also reducing operational expenses and energy consumption. Bio-LNG is liquefied biomethane created from an organic source such as food, animal, or municipal waste.
Air Products will highlight the PRISM® GreenSep LNG membrane separator at BIOGAS AMERICAS at the Savannah Convention Center in Savannah, Georgia from May 13 to May 16. Also at the conference, Rory Deledda, Air Products’ Biogas Product Manager, will host a Tech Talk highlighting the benefits of GreenSep LNG membrane separators for system designers at 11 a.m. on Wednesday, May 15 on the Keynote Stage at BIOGAS AMERICAS.
