On-site quantification of methane leaks from an agricultural biogas plant through three different methods
Résumé
In order to assess fugitive emissions, three methane quantifying technics were applied on an agricultural biogas plant during two campaigns. The IR-camera was firstly used to pinpoint leaks. The bagging method focused deeply on two single leaks while IR camera and tracer gas methods assessed the whole leaks. For the tracer gas method, a known quantity of butane was introduced in the gasometer and its decrease was monitored.These measurements allowed us to evaluate the loss of methane on the installation and to accurately compare the encouraging estimations provided by the three methods.
