Abstract
Process and plant for membrane permeation treatment of a carbon dioxide and methane-containing biogas stream in which the biogas stream is compressed with a compressor and the compressed biogas stream is fed to a membrane separation unit comprising first and second modules each containing at least one membrane selective for carbon dioxide over methane. The first module separates the compressed biogas stream into a first, second, and third methane-deficient permeates (in comparison to the biogas stream) and a first methane-enriched retentate (in comparison to the biogas stream). The first permeate being richer in methane than the second or third permeates. The second module separates the first permeate into a fourth methane-deficient permeate and a second methane-enriched retentate. The second and third retentates are recycled back to an inlet of the compressor.
