Metrology for Biogas

A new set of quality specifications were recently developed for biomethane for injection into natural gas grids and for use as transport fuel. In response to the drafting of these specifications, the Metrology for Biogas research project was established to address the needs for measurement standards and reference methods and help provide a measurement infrastructure for assessing biomethane and biogas quality.

This e-learning course aims to disseminate the work undertaken in the research project, supporting biogas practitioners to comply with the specifications for biomethane. This course has been created as part of the EU Metrology for Biogas project (ENG54).

This course consists of six modules:

Module 1: Introduction
Module 2: Organic impurities
Module 3: Inorganic impurities
Module 4: Moisture and particulate content
Module 5: Physical properties
Module 6: Sampling

Learners who successfully complete the course will receive an NPL Certificate of Completion.
