~Company to bring to market in 2025 a new
compelling product line that advances the state-of-the-art in
renewable natural gas production from landfills~
VANCOUVER, BC, Dec. 9, 2024
/CNW/ - Greenlane Renewables Inc. ("Greenlane" or the
"Company") (TSX: GRN) (FSE: 52G) is pleased to announce
that it has filed two new patent applications for landfill gas
upgrading technology. The Company intends to bring to market in
2025 a new compelling product line that incorporates the content of
these patent applications architected to advance the
state-of-the-art in the production of renewable natural gas ("RNG")
from landfills by maximizing methane recovery performance while
minimizing capital expenditure. Higher performance and lower cost
systems enable RNG developers and project owners to enhance revenue
generating RNG output from their assets while minimizing upfront
investment, making RNG projects more accessible and scalable.
"Greenlane has been a pioneer in the RNG industry for over 35
years successfully opening up new markets and segments," said
Brad Douville, CEO of Greenlane.
"Greenlane is also unique in the industry being the only biogas
upgrading company offering and deploying systems utilizing the
three main upgrading technologies: waterwash, pressure swing
adsorption, and membrane separation, independently and in
combination, plus proprietary biogas desulfurization technology. It
is this deep level of understanding, unbiased perspective on
technology and segment-specific insights gained through extensive
experience that led to the development of this new intellectual
property that addresses tough industry challenges."
"Landfills have been and continue to be the largest feedstock
source for RNG, but landfill gas is much more difficult to upgrade
into pipeline quality RNG than biogas from anaerobic digesters due
to large and varying amounts of oxygen and nitrogen that need to be
removed. At Greenlane, we were not satisfied with current landfill
gas upgrading and saw an opportunity to make a major step forward
with technology that ensures adaptability and reliability with
lower costs and optimized performance for a wide range of landfill
sites. These patent applications demonstrate our commitment to
advancing sustainable energy solutions through technological
improvements to lower the financial barriers for renewable energy
projects."
Based on data compiled by the Argonne National Laboratory, of
all of the feedstock sources for RNG, namely landfills, wastewater,
food waste and agricultural waste, 70% of the RNG production
capacity in the United States came
from landfills in 2021. According to BloombergNEF, the untapped
potential going forward to produce RNG from landfill gas is more
than all other feedstock types combined in the United States. The International Energy
Agency stated in its Medium-Term Gas Report 2023 that RNG
production in Brazil is expected
to quadruple from 2023 to 2027, with 60% of it being derived from
landfills.
About Greenlane Renewables
Greenlane is driving change: accelerating the energy transition
to a net-zero emissions economy. We are cleaning up two of the
largest and most difficult to decarbonize sectors of the global
energy system: the natural gas grid and commercial transportation.
As a pioneer and leading specialist in biogas upgrading, we have
been actively contributing to the decarbonization of our planet for
over 35 years. The systems we provide transform biogas generated
from organic waste into high-value grid-ready renewable natural gas
("RNG"). Our systems produce clean, low-carbon and carbon-negative
RNG from organic waste sources including agriculture (such as dairy
and hog manure), water resource recovery facilities, food waste,
landfills, and sugar mills. Greenlane is the only biogas upgrading
company offering and has deployed the three main upgrading
technologies: waterwash, pressure swing adsorption, and membrane
separation, plus proprietary biogas desulfurization technology.
Greenlane has delivered over 145 biogas upgrading systems into 19
countries, including some of the largest RNG production facilities
in the world, and over 160 biogas desulfurization units. For
