Brussels, 25th of March. The Biomethane Industrial Partnership has released a video that offers a glimpse into the Task Force 4.1’s latest study on the role of the biomethane industry in satisfying a growing biogenic CO₂ demand. The study will be launched during the upcoming TF4.1 webinar, scheduled on the 9th of April, from 10:00 to 11:10 CET.
Biogenic CO₂ from biomethane production emerges as an essential element in achieving urgent climate targets by aiding in carbon capture. Did you know that biogas typically contains 40% biogenic CO₂? Upgrading this biogas to biomethane helps capture this biogenic CO₂, providing a means to offset CO₂ of fossil origin or store the biogenic CO₂ via CCS, providing even negative emissions. As such, this process contributes to the decarbonisation of various industries, as biogenic CO₂ serves as a feedstock in sectors such as food and beverage, building materials, biopolymers, e-fuels, and others.
The study conducted by Task Force 4.1, focusing on the valorisation of biogenic CO₂ as a biomethane co-product, indicates that the demand for biogenic CO₂ could be much higher than currently expected and shows the potential of biomethane production to satisfy a significant share of this demand.
