Biogas Safety Control Equipment

Biogas safety control equipment
As environmental concerns and energy efficiency are increasing, efficient economical and safe gas
control systems become an increasingly important part of operating the modern disposal plant. A
properly designed digester gas control system can virtually eliminate the release of odors and VOCs,
while safely handling the flammable and possibly explosive gases generated by the digester.
Shand & Jurs Equipment can pay for itself by converting your digester gases from a liability to an
asset. After dropping out sediment and condensate the cleaned gases can be used to supplement
plant service gas to run boilers, heaters and other natural gas operated devices. The plant realizes
huge savings by essentially powering themselves. In some cases, the excess energy can be sold and
the plant can make additional profit.
With nearly 90 years of field proven experience in vapor control, Shand & Jurs can provide you the
control that you need, with the equipment that is specifically designed to be corrosion resistant to
sewage gases.

Expanda-SealTM
To reduce emissions, Shand & Jurs designed and patented a high performance valve sealing
technology called Expanda-Seal, which has reduced tank emissions and odors in every process
environment imaginable. This innovative design actually uses the internal vessel pressure to create a
tighter seal the closer the pressure gets to the set point. The end result is a nearly bubble-tight seal.
