Biogas is naturally produced Methane gas, chemically similar to the Natural Gas we use all of the time.

The difference is where it comes from.

Biogas is naturally produced by capturing the offgas of landfills, animal farms, water treatment plants, and other sources.
In the past, Biogas was vented or flared off (burned as waste), but the perfection of technologies that maximize Biogas capture and purify the produced methane, combined with the rise in energy prices, has produced an economically viable product for companies looking to convert their wastes into money-making energy. Right now there are breweries, landfills, and animal farms producing millions of cubic feet of pure, infinitely usable Biogas every day! Biogas is creating a usable fuel product from un-usable waste.

Biogas can be used in all of the same ways as Natural Gas, including compressed or liquefied as vehicle fuel, burned onsite for clean energy, or sold into a Natural Gas pipeline for other users.

The basic processes - the breakdown and digestion of organic waste products - have been used for over a century, but the steady rise in energy prices has provided incentive to capture Biogas and use it as an energy source. The true beauty of Biogas is in its negative greenhouse gas emissions cycle: the methane gas, if simply released into the atmosphere rather than being recycled into usable fuel, would be more of a greenhouse contributor than the emissions from burning Biogas as a fuel.

Unfortunately, Biogas is not currently in large enough production to be used in many vehicles. The number of Biogas systems currently implemented is a small fraction of the potential for this energy source. Many companies have not realized their full Biogas potential. Is your company one of them?

Biogas is a never-ending energy supply!

Paradigm Biogas Company is working to accelerate the development of this renewable fuel through expanding its production sources and promoting the use of Biogas in compressed natural gas (CNG) and liquid natural gas (LNG) vehicles.
