SYSADVANCE NORTH AMERICA has announced its selection to supply a biogas upgrading system for the Middlesex County Utility Authority (MCUA) in Sayreville, New Jersey. The company will deploy its Methagen LF biogas upgrading system, a proven solution for converting highly contaminated landfill gas into Renewable Natural Gas (RNG). CEM Engineering and Concord Engineering Group have selected the system itself to effectively purify heavily contaminated landfill gas into renewable natural gas (RNG) to meet severe pipeline specifications. This step is part of a project that has yet to begin to convert landfill gas into a sustainable energy source. This is path-breaking in decarbonization. Annually, this project is expected to sequester greenhouse gas emissions comparable to taking 158,000 passenger cars off the road, along with generating additional revenue streams for MCUA. Besides, SYSADVANCE shall provide complete gas processing equipment for treating contaminants like hydrogen sulfide, volatile organic compounds, and siloxanes.

Revolutionizing Landfill Gas Management

Ultimately, the transition from methane to renewable natural gas will result in both environmental and financial benefits for the Middlesex County Utility Authority. The Methagen LF system is to serve as the turning point because of its efficiency and specifications concerning the pipelines. It contains advanced technologies for the treatment of contaminants such as H2S, VOCs, siloxanes integrated with Pressure Swing Adsorption, and Nitrogen Removal to comply with market standards. Brent Jaklin, CEO of SYSADVANCE NORTH AMERICA, stressed that the project must be encouraged because it fulfills decarbonization objectives.

Concord Engineering (MCUA) has embarked on a project that will process landfill gas into Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) while reducing greenhouse gas emissions. This should also translate into shrinking the carbon footprint of MCUA and earning income from this source- which would keep MCUA in line with fulfilling its environmental stewardship mandate. The project would sequestrate emissions equivalent to removing 158,000 passenger cars from roadways each year, and it would mark a big step toward decarbonization.

A Brighter Future for New Jersey

Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) becomes an alternative cleaner fuel compared to fossil fuels within the U.S. because of decarbonization moves. The MCUA landfill upgrade is one good example of how RNG can reduce reliance on fossil-fuel power, as well as encourage a circular economy, and contribute to energy independence in the U.S. by producing energy from local sources.

The MCUA project in New Jersey led by SYSADVANCE NORTH AMERICA, MCUA, Concord Engineering, and CEM Engineering, is an example of a public-private partnership aimed at environmental and economic improvements. The project is centered on an advanced technology application by using the Methagen LF system as an innovative waste management and renewable energy solution. This project is a major milestone in the sustainability journey of New Jersey and a model for future undertakings.
