The enclosed biomethane flare represents a significant advancement in the utilization of biogas derived from organic waste. This type of Flare is designed for a specific use in Biomethane production plants where it is necessary to burn both the biogas upstream of the upgrading system and the biomethane generated after the treatment.

Understanding Enclosed Biomethane Flares: An enclosed biomethane flare is a specialized system designed to combust biogas derived from the anaerobic digestion process of organic materials within a controlled environment. Anaerobic digestion is a biological process that breaks down organic matter in the absence of oxygen, resulting in the production of biogas, predominantly composed of methane and carbon dioxide.

Functioning and Benefits: Enclosed biomethane flares function similarly to enclosed biogas flares, with the key distinction being their focus on biomethane, which is purified biogas with a high methane content. The biomethane is directed into the enclosed combustion chamber, where controlled burning takes place. This process effectively converts the methane into carbon dioxide, water vapor, and heat. The enclosed design ensures that the combustion is contained, preventing the release of methane, a potent greenhouse gas, into the atmosphere.
