On April 23, 2025, a significant shift in Belgian biogas usage was announced. Aquafin has transitioned from using raw biogas solely for on-site power generation to producing green gas through an innovative separation process. This change maximizes the energy potential of biogas, addressing previous efficiency losses.
- Maximize utilization of raw biogas potential
- Transition to more efficient green gas production
- Aquafin's pilot project launched in Antwerp
- Expansion to Gent, Dendermonde, and Genk
- Four cities supply power to 2,650 households
How is Aquafin Transforming Biogas Usage Across Belgium?
Aquafin is leading a revolution in how Belgium utilizes biogas. By implementing a new separation process at four wastewater treatment plants—Antwerp, Gent, Dendermonde, and Genk—they are now able to produce biomethane efficiently. This transformation not only supports local households but also promotes sustainability in energy production.
- Aquafin operates 330 wastewater treatment facilities.
- 12 utilize advanced sludge processes.
- 4 have successfully switched to biomethane installations.
The future looks bright as more cities consider similar upgrades. Will your community be next to embrace this eco-friendly technology? Stay tuned for updates on how these changes will shape Belgium’s energy landscape!
