Wessex Water renewable energy company GENeco is investing in a new biogas upgrading plant from Malmberg. The plant will be installed at Trowbridge wastewater recycling centre, which is situated in south England 160km west of London.

The delivery includes a turn key Malmberg Compact™ GR BAS 3 with a capacity to purify 600 Nm3/h biogas into biomethane. The gas will be injected into the gas grid with high pressure (8,5 bar). This is GENeco’s second plant from Malmberg. The first one produces biomethane at Bristol bioresources and renewable energy park, in Avonmouth.

The plant at Trowbridge will deliver green gas to the grid in March 2019.

Malmberg is a leader in biogas upgrading technology with more than 100 plants around Europe. The facility at Trowbridge wastewater recycling centre will be the 12th Malmberg plant in UK

André Carlsson, Business Area Director Biogas, Malmberg, said:
“The UK and GENeco is showing rest of Europe that biomethane is an energy source to count on. “We are thankful that we have the opportunity in UK to be a part of the UK green gas transformation.”
