BCP-CH4 analyzers are suitable for measuring methane in biogas applications or process development with methanogenic or methanotrophic organisms. BCP-CH4 gas sensors can be used in any scale of biogas process from lab to industrial scale digesters and all scales of industrial microbiology processes from lab to manufacturing scale. Data transfer to process control systems is simple. BCP-CH4 can be used directly on the gas stream with no requirements for pretreatments. All BCP-analyzers are available with aluminium (pilot to industrial scale use) or PA (lab scale) casings. BlueSens offers the Yieldmaster series for customers interested in BMP (bio methane potential) determinations.
