A number of research centres are interested in uncontrolled release of methane into the atmosphere. This results from the concern for the atmosphere and hope of obtaining power and chemical resources. The production of biomethane from biogas offers the possibility of acquiring chemical resources, fuel for combustion engines, gas turbines and fuel cells. However, each biomethane application necessitates its specific treatment. The study shows methods of biogas treatment which ensure its purity so that it could be used as engine fuel, network gas, CNG and in fuel cells. It also demonstrates sorption techniques of biogas treatment described in the literature and results of the author’s research.

Niekontrolowanym uwalnianiem się metanu do atmosfery interesuje się wiele jednostek badawczych. Spowodowane to jest troską o ochronę atmosfery jak również nadzieją na pozyskanie surowca energetycznego i chemicznego. Otrzymanie biometanu z biogazów stwarza nadzieję na pozyskanie surowca chemicznego, paliwa do silników spalinowych, turbin gazowych i ogniw paliwowych. Jednak każdy rodzaj użycia biometanu wymaga jego odpowiedniego oczyszczenia. W publikacji przedstawiono sposoby oczyszczania biogazów do takiej czystości, żeby nadawały się do wykorzystania jako paliwo silnikowe, gaz sieciowy, CNG oraz do ogniw paliwowych. Zaprezentowano metody sorpcyjne oczyszczania biogazów opisane w literaturze oraz wyniki badań własnych.
