OG makes its own 100% Bio-CNG

OG Clean Fuels makes its own clean Bio-CNG

Produced from residual materials

Bio-CNG (Compressed Natural Gas) is a sustainable fuel that’s made from biodegradable residues, such as waste from sewage treatment, waste processing and organic waste (vegetables, fruit, and garden waste). These residues are converted into biomethane, which is then compressed to CNG.

There is an abundance of (organic) waste in the Netherlands, which means that 1.4 billion cubic meters of Bio-CNG can be produced.

Every year, 1.3 million passenger cars can run on Bio-CNG (avg. 14,000km). This means a reduction of approximately 16.5 million tons (Mt) of CO2 emissions.

Why choose
Bio-CNG?

Bio-CNG is an excellent environmentally friendly alternative to fossil natural gas and other fuels.

It is a clean fuel that contributes significantly to the reduction of CO2 emissions. This is good the environment and the future. By choosing Bio-CNG as a fuel, you make a sustainable choice that contributes to a better environment for all of us. This clean fuel is the ideal intermediate step for anyone who wants to drive clean now and whom electric or hydrogen is not yet feasible. Suitable for passenger cars, commercial vehicles, trucks and buses.

Advantages Bio-CNG

Clean

Bio-CNG is a sustainable fuel that is made from biodegradable residues, such as food waste and animal manure. This means that it does not contribute to the emission of carbon dioxide and other harmful substances, which are bad for the environment.

Wide coverage

With Bio-CNG refuel locations throughout the Netherlands, Germany, Sweden and Italy, OG covers a wide range of areas.

Wider application possibilities

Bio-CNG can be used for a wide variety of vehicles, from passenger card to trucks and buses. This means it is a practical fuel for different types of (clean) drivers and goals.

Bio-CNG for
transport

Bio-CNG offers trucks a range of approximately 550km. A CNG engine runs 50% quieter than a diesel engine, which is advantageous for city distribution at night, allowing you to load and unload outside of window times. In addition, you do not have to pay road tax (maut) for trucks in Germany, which can save transporters a lot of money.

BIO-CNG MANUFACTURING PROCESS

The Bio-CNG production process begins with the collection of organic waste and residual waste, such as biowaste. This is sifted and filtered, leaving only usable particles. These are then mixed with water and heated to 55℃. All of this is converted into methane, which is then converted into green gas in the gas treatment plant.

In Beverwijk (HHNK), OG has its own biogas production plant. In the water treatment process, sludge is the residual product. Biogas is released from the sludge. OG upgrades it to the right quality and then feeds it into the gas network.

YOUR WASTE, OUR FUEL

Did you know that your waste is used to make Bio-CNG? This can be done through sewage treatment, waste processing and organic waste. OG has one location in the Netherlands where we produce Bio-CNG ourselves, in Beverwijk. Sludge is the residual product of the water of the water purification process. Biogas is released from sludge. OG evaluates this to the right quality and then injects it into the gas network.

CNG AND CNG+

CNG stands for Compressed Natural Gas and is natural gas under pressure. CNG produced from the Dutch natural gas network contains 78% methane. CNG+ is produced by compressing and heating liquid LNG. CNG+ produced from LNG contains approximately 95% methane. As a result, up to 20% more kilometres can be driven with this fuel (CNG+) than with CNG from the Dutch natural gas network. OG works closely with DCB Energy to set up and manage CNG+ sites.

Note: CNG+ is more expensive than Bio-CNG because of the longer range!

They already drive clean!

Omrin

Albert Vries (truck driver at Omrin)

"I drive with our fossil-free garbage truck to our customers every day. In pulling power, I do not notice any difference. This used to be different, but now engines are stronger, cleaner, and quieter. This way you drive around with pleasure, for a clean world. Everyone notices that, and we are an example to others. You see more and more trucks running on Bio-CNG (green gas), an excellent development."

Elis

Circular services at work

"At a company where sustainability is intertwined in the DNA, green distribution obviously cannot be left behind. As of early as 2021, Elis has 40 electric passenger cars, 3 trucks on HVO 100, and 8 trucks on
Bio-CNG. Making the fleet more sustainable is a high priority because Elis has a large logistics body."
