The management of domestic and urban waste has long been a challenge for municipalities worldwide. However, with the rise of sustainable technologies, this challenge has transformed into a significant opportunity for renewable energy generation. Domestic Waste Biogas Digesters are at the core of this shift, turning household and commercial organic waste into a clean, valuable fuel. The successful operation of these facilities hinges on more than just the digester itself; it requires a robust, integrated biogas containment solution. Balloon-Type Biogas Plants are the ideal technology for this application, transforming a simple tank roof into a dynamic system that captures, stores, and protects valuable biogas. This integrated approach is vital for maximizing the energy yield and operational efficiency of any Domestic Waste Biogas Digesters. As a premier China Domestic Waste Biogas Digesters Manufacturer, Shijiazhuang Zhengzhong Technology Co., Ltd. (Center Enamel) is at the forefront of providing these advanced solutions, driving the performance and profitability of municipal biogas projects worldwide.
With over 30 years of specialized expertise in providing advanced containment systems, Center Enamel has established itself as a trusted global authority. Our reputation as a leading China Domestic Waste Biogas Digesters Manufacturer is built on a deep understanding of the unique demands of converting domestic waste into renewable energy. Our balloon-type plants are meticulously engineered to secure the integrity of the stored biogas, providing a dynamic and safe storage buffer that maximizes energy output and operational reliability. By integrating a seamless and intelligent storage solution directly onto the digester tanks, we offer a streamlined and highly cost-effective path toward a more sustainable and prosperous future for urban environments.
A Balloon-Type Biogas Plant is a sophisticated, low-pressure system engineered to serve as both the cover and the integrated gas holder for Domestic Waste Biogas Digesters. This integrated design is particularly advantageous for urban facilities where a simplified, all-in-one solution is preferred. The plant, which consists of a flexible membrane structure, is securely anchored to the top flange of the digester tank, creating a single, hermetically sealed unit.
The system is constructed from high-strength, gas-tight membrane material—a specialized PVC-coated polyester fabric—chosen for its exceptional durability and resistance to the corrosive gases and UV exposure found in biogas environments. The core of this system is its dual-membrane structure:
Inner Membrane: This flexible membrane forms the primary gas containment chamber, resting directly on the contents of the digester. It is designed to expand and contract dynamically, buffering fluctuations in biogas production and preventing dangerous pressure buildups or vacuums within the tank.
Outer Membrane: This permanently inflated, dome-shaped external layer provides structural stability and protection. Maintained under a slight positive air pressure by a blower, it shields the inner membrane and the stored biogas from extreme weather conditions, including high winds, rain, and snow. The insulated air gap between the two membranes helps to maintain a stable gas temperature, which is vital for the optimal performance of the entire system.
This innovative, integrated design guarantees absolute gas-tightness, effectively capturing all valuable biogas and mitigating fugitive methane emissions from domestic waste sources.
Our Balloon-Type Biogas Plants offer a range of significant benefits that make them an essential investment for any facility with Domestic Waste Biogas Digesters:
Cost and Space Efficiency: By combining the functions of a cover and a gas holder into a single unit, this solution eliminates the need for a separate, expensive, and space-consuming stand-alone gasholder. This is a crucial advantage for urban projects with limited land availability and significantly reduces overall capital expenditure.
Enhanced Operational Safety: Operating at a very low pressure, our plants are an inherently safer alternative to high-pressure gas storage. This design minimizes the risk of explosion and provides peace of mind for plant operators.
Superior Thermal Insulation: The air layer between the membranes acts as an effective insulator. This thermal barrier helps maintain a stable, warm temperature within the digester, which is essential for maximizing the efficiency and yield of the anaerobic digestion process.
Simplified Installation and Maintenance: Our plants are lightweight and modular, allowing for quick and straightforward installation directly onto the digester tanks. This integrated approach simplifies project logistics and reduces long-term maintenance needs, as there are fewer external components to inspect and service.
Effective Emission and Odor Control: The hermetically sealed design prevents the release of methane, a potent greenhouse gas, and effectively contains unpleasant odors. This is crucial for urban environments, ensuring environmental compliance and maintaining good community relations.
Center Enamel's balloon-type biogas solutions have been deployed as a critical component in numerous authentic projects, proving their reliability and effectiveness in managing biogas from various organic waste streams.
Shandong Heze Biogas Project, China:
Application: At this municipal-scale facility, our balloon-type plants were a fundamental component for the plant’s gas management. They were used to efficiently collect and store biogas from the anaerobic digestion of urban waste in large-scale digesters. This dedicated storage provided a critical buffer before the biogas was purified and compressed.
Project Case: A large biogas project in Heze, Shandong province, utilized 2 units of our balloon-type biogas plants with a combined volume of 15,266m³. They played a key role in managing biogas fluctuations and ensuring the plant could operate its upgrading equipment consistently and effectively, directly addressing the challenge of domestic waste.
Henan Province Bioenergy Project, China:
Application: In this bioenergy project, which utilized animal waste as its primary feedstock, our balloon-type plants were installed as both covers and storage vessels on the tanks. This application demonstrates the technology's effectiveness in managing biogas from a key agricultural waste source.
Project Case: A major bioenergy project in Henan province utilized several Glass-Fused-to-Steel tanks with a total volume of 4,407m³. Our flexible balloon-type plants were an essential part of the system, enabling the tanks to effectively serve as a reliable platform for biogas production and storage.
Inner Mongolia Bio-Natural Gas Project, China:
Application: Our balloon-type biogas plants were an integral part of this large-scale bio-natural gas plant. They served as the primary storage and collection point for biogas produced from animal waste. This low-pressure buffer was essential for ensuring a stable and continuous feedstock for the plant’s upgrading and compression systems, which processed the gas into high-purity natural gas.
Project Case: This bio-natural gas project in Inner Mongolia utilized 4 units of our holder balloons, providing a total storage volume of 16,760m³. This extensive capacity was vital for managing the variable biogas production and optimizing the plant’s conversion of agricultural waste into sellable biomethane.
Eswatini Alcohol Wastewater Treatment Project:
Application: In this international project, two large digester tanks were used to treat alcohol wastewater, a byproduct that contains organic components similar to industrial and agricultural waste. Our balloon-type plants were installed as the covers to capture the biogas generated from the treatment process, preventing emissions and creating a valuable energy source from the waste.
Project Case: An alcohol wastewater treatment project in Eswatini utilized 2 units of our plants with a combined volume of 42,188m³, which were installed on top of the AD tanks to serve as both covers and gas storage units.
