NORIT: Fit-for-purpose activated carbon solutions for profitable Biogas and RNG monetization

Five Key Steps to Size Activated Carbon Vessels for Optimal H₂S Removal from RNG/Biogas

To maximize H2S removal and minimize the cost of H2S removed using activated carbon, there are several important vessel sizing factors to consider.

Key Considerations:

  • Minimizing Capex and Opex
  • Vessel type and configuration
  • Ensuring uniform gas distribution (plug flow)
  • Maintaining appropriate gas flow velocity
  • Providing adequate contact time

By addressing these and other factors, operators can achieve optimal H2S removal efficiency and extend the carbon's useful life, and minimize life cycle costs.
