Project Details
Description
New methods to support safe, fair injection of biomethane into gas networks.
There is an urgent need to increase the amount of biomethane as natural gas resources are declining. Traceable test methods are needed to meet biomethane quality requirements.
Project develops standardised test methods and reference standards for the parameters to be monitored, when injecting biomethane into the natural gas grid and using it as vehicle fuel.
VTT MIKES develops a setup for dynamic preparation of gas mixtures in air and biomethane containing simultaneously H2O, NH3, HCl or HF.
Call 2016: Metrology for Energy
This project has received funding from the EMPIR programme co-financed by the Participating States and from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme.
