CanaGas tanks will foster the production of small scale biogas where a pipeline tie-in does not exist. This will provide off-line producers throughout the world with sustainable and dispensable bio-methane. Some bio-methane produced may be collected by a CTM for transport to other market locations. In Canada and some parts of the US, bio-methane sells at a large premium.
To remove the CO2 out of bio-gas, CanaGas is developing a unique way to remove the CO2 for release or collection as food grade CO2 (not from landfills). The new method compliments the liquefaction of bio-methane for safe storage.
Notably, the bi-product of bio-methane production is organic fertilizer. Both in liquid and in dry solid form.
Using a CTM and simple P-LNG technology, the flaring of large volumes of natural gas can be captured, transported, and monetized. This would include the propane and butane that is often flared off with natural gas to produce oil. Such LPGs are important to the sustainability of life on Earth. A third of the world use LPGs to cook their meals and heat their homes. A quarter of the world is still using wood and dung.
A low-pressure CTM will safely transport 15 MT of liquid ammonia, the fertilizer that is responsible for feeding half of the world. The safe transport of ammonia is a currently a difficult and very dangerous activity. Transport in a CTM is very safe.
