Monitor and optimise your biogas plant

Product catalog summary
Overview: This document provides a comprehensive guide on optimizing biogas plants using the Multitec® BioControl system. It highlights the benefits of monitoring gas composition and optimizing production efficiency through both mobile and stationary solutions.
Key Features:
  • Multitec® BioControl System: Offers up to 8 measuring locations, simple documentation, and easy integration into existing plants. It allows for continuous monitoring of gas composition and measures up to 5 gases.
  • Stationary and Mobile Solutions: The BioControl 2/4/8 base station and Multitec® 545/540 mobile devices provide automated monitoring and flexible configuration of measurement locations and cycles.
  • Measurement Capabilities: Precise measurement of methane, carbon dioxide, and other gases like oxygen, carbon monoxide, hydrogen, and hydrogen sulfide. Explosion protection is included.
  • Process Optimization: The system helps in optimizing substrate usage, maintaining insurance coverage, and ensuring plant reliability with minimal downtime.
Technical Specifications:
  • BioControl Models: BioControl 2, 4, and 8 offer varying numbers of measuring locations and flowmeter outputs for analog signals.
  • Multitec® Devices: Multitec® 545 and 540 provide mobile measurement with explosion protection and different H2S measuring ranges.
  • Leak Detection: SR-LD 800 and 200 devices detect gas leaks from distances up to 200 m with high sensitivity and accuracy.
Additional Services:
  • Pipeline Inspection: Offers support for pipeline inspections, including precise location and odorant control.
  • Device Service: Provides maintenance and minor repairs to minimize downtime.
  • Seminars and Training: Offers training to keep staff updated on industry changes and regulations.
  • Vehicle Upgrades: Custom vehicle solutions for emergency and leakage services.
  • Building Services: Regular inspection and maintenance of gas, water, and electrical systems.
Conclusion: The Multitec® BioControl system is designed to enhance the efficiency and safety of biogas plants by providing reliable monitoring and measurement solutions. The document emphasizes the importance of choosing the right model for specific challenges and offers support from the service and sales team.

Monitor and optimise your biogas plant-4

Mobile measurement even at remote measuring points Check values from a distance „For me, it’s important that the plant runs reliably. That means as little downtime as possible and that I am able to detect potential undesirable developments, such as increased sulphur levels, quickly in order to prevent damage. The Multitec® BioControl system is a great help in this regard. It also helps me optimise the plant. For example, I know exactly when I need to change the activated carbon. That saves money. And thanks to Multitec® BioControl I am always ready with information for my service providers and...

Monitor and optimise your biogas plant-5

One solution, many possibilities With the BioControl device combination you can record gas composition and volumes flexibly at any time. Do you only want to measure raw gas and pure gas at the filter to protect your system’s motor and to document gas quality? Or would you also like automated measurements at the secondary fermenter and repository in order to increase process efficiency? Both are possible. Do you run an external, gas-tight, covered fermentation residue storage? No problem! Simply remove the mobile Multitec from the base station and use it to measure the parameters on the external...
