Masterclass Biomethane
Experience, innovation and exchange for an increasingly efficient biomethane value chain
5 February 2026 - Bari
This masterclass was created to provide an in-depth, practical and technical exploration of the key stages in the biomethane value chain, with particular attention to pre-upgrading and post-upgrading processes, which are crucial yet sometimes overlooked. The event offers a unique opportunity for professionals to exchange experiences, best practices and innovative approaches, with the aim of improving gas quality, operational efficiency and regulatory compliance. The stages before and after upgrading will be examined in detail, from biogas pre-treatment and purification to monitoring and grid injection management, highlighting technical and operational solutions for an increasingly reliable and sustainable value chain.

Pollution
Pollution Analytical Equipment specialises in the development of instruments for the on-site chemical analysis of volatile compounds. Its products are used for environmental monitoring, process control and quality control. One of its key innovations is a system for monitoring volatile organic compounds (VOCs) during the biogas upgrading process. This helps protect the plant, optimise the quality of the biomethane produced and ensure the odourisation requirements necessary for grid injection.
