Biogas Power Generation Project for Waste Treatment Plant in South Korea

A waste treatment plant in South Korea adopted PAUWAY PWGM 400KW biogas generator sets, which utilize landfill biogas generated from waste degradation to realize on-site clean power generation, realizing resource recycling and stable self-power supply for the whole plant.

Project Background & Tender Award

South Korea has strict requirements for waste harmless treatment, energy conservation and emission reduction. The landfill will produce a large amount of biogas after organic waste decomposes. Using biogas for power generation can effectively eliminate greenhouse gas emissions, reduce the plant’s dependence on municipal power grid, and realize circular economic operation mode.

Core Technology & Equipment Configuration

Generating Units

The project is equipped with PWGM series 400KW biogas generator sets independently developed by Pauway Energy, which can efficiently use purified landfill biogas as fuel to convert waste gas into stable electric energy for daily production and auxiliary equipment of the waste treatment plant.

Project Positioning

On-site renewable energy power station for waste disposal project, which turns landfill biogas into clean electric energy to realize self-sufficient power supply of the plant and meet local environmental protection and carbon emission reduction standards.

Equipment Features

• 400KW rated power, stable adaptive operation for landfill biogas with fluctuating gas composition
• High combustion efficiency, low emission, fully compliant with South Korea strict environmental protection standards
• Intelligent gas pressure monitoring and automatic adjustment system, realizing long-term unattended stable operation

Project Significance & Challenges

Project Value

The biogas generating unit realizes harmless utilization of landfill gas, cuts down the plant’s electricity cost, effectively reduces carbon emissions, and builds a typical circular energy application case for domestic waste treatment projects.

Execution Challenges

Completed equipment parameter optimization according to local biogas composition, passed strict Korean environmental and safety certification, and realized stable matching with on-site gas purification and power grid access system.
