Endress+Hauser announced that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has approved its ultrasonic and Coriolis flowmeters for measuring biogas and renewable natural gas (RNG) to produce renewable fuels. These approvals are by the regulations at 40 CFR 80.155(a)(1) or (2).
The EPA’s approvals follow reviews of the company’s alternative measurement protocol (AMP) submissions. Endress+Hauser’s Proline Promass Coriolis flowmeters and Proline Prosonic Flow ultrasonic flowmeters have been recognized for meeting the accuracy and precision requirements specified by the EPA. These approvals allow biogas and RNG producers to use Endress+Hauser flowmeters under 40 CFR 80.155(a)(3), provided they meet all other applicable regulatory requirements.
“At Endress+Hauser, we are fully committed to providing unwavering support to the industry and our valued customers by delivering consistent and reliable measurements that meet regulatory requirements,” said Cesar Martinez Castillo, natural gas/LNG industry marketing manager at Endress+Hauser USA. “Our flowmeters are designed to ensure accurate and precise measurement, helping producers comply with EPA regulations and contribute to producing renewable fuels."
The Proline Promass Coriolis flowmeters can measure mass flow and temperature simultaneously.
Regardless of the gas composition and without the need to calibrate in gas, Proline Promass Coriolis flowmeters provide data for the efficient production of renewable fuels.
The Proline Prosonic Flow ultrasonic flowmeters utilize ultrasonic technology to measure the flow of biogas and RNG, calculate the content of methane of it as quality feedback, gives feedback about the medium properties like the calorific values and the Wobbe index.
