FlexSNG

Flexible Production of Synthetic Natural Gas and Biochar via Gasification of Biomass and Waste Feedstocks.

Field test of the OTM module with a biomass gasifier in Finland.

About the project

The H2020 project FlexSNG is an EU-Canada jointly funded action that aims at developing a flexible and cost-effective gasification-based process for the production of pipeline-quality biomethane, high-value biochar and renewable heat from a wide variety of low-quality biomass residues and biogenic waste feedstocks.

Within FlexSNG, DTU develops and applies a novel oxygen production method based on oxygen transport membranes (OTMs). These ceramic membranes reduce energy consumption by 50% compared to state-of-the-art cryogenic air separation and enables cost-effective oxygen production already on a smaller scale.
