Our research report has extensively covered external factors influencing the parent market growth during the forecast period.
The need for cleaner fuel is notably driving the market growth although factors such as the high cost of production may impede the market growth. Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
Key Biogas Upgrading Equipment Market Driver
The need for cleaner fuel is notably driving the market growth. Unlike oil and natural gas, biogas is a renewable fuel. It is extracted from biodegradable matter and waste, then recycled and refined to act as a fuel that can be reused in various applications.
Increasing greenhouse gas emissions and the need to diversify energy options are driving global demand for more efficient and cleaner alternative fuels such as biogas, biodiesel, and ethanol through research and development. Biogas is used as an alternative to natural gas. Unlike natural gas, which is globally unstable to price changes, biogas, when used as an alternative fuel, helps to avoid the consumption of natural gas, strengthening the economy.
Thus, the demand for refined biogas is growing rapidly, and more refined biogas production with the appropriate equipment is needed to meet it. Consequently, the demand for equipment upgrades is increasing, leading to the growth of the global biogas refining equipment market during the forecast period.
Significant Biogas Upgrading Equipment Market Trend
Technological advancements in biogas upgrading techniques and equipment are the key trends in the market. Government support and growing interest in the use of biogas encourage investment in biogas processing technologies and equipment. This has led to the continuous improvement of existing technologies and the development of new technologies such as cryogenic refining, on-site methane enrichment, ecological lung, etc. The energy intensity of improved biogas improved up to 99%. reducing the release of methane into the atmosphere. Recent technological advances have enabled companies to produce gaseous fuels by boiling dry raw materials using either a hydrolyzer via the Schmack pretreatment process or a special BIOFerm fermentation process.
In Sweden, for example, Goteborg Energi has a 20 MW plant that gasifies forest residues and then transforms syngas, hydrogen, and carbon monoxide into biomethane. Such technological advancements are expected to drive the growth of the global biogas refining equipment market during the forecast period.
Major Biogas Upgrading Equipment Market Challenge
The high cost of production is the major challenge impeding the market growth. Converting biogas into refined biogas is an expensive process. Biogas contains 30%- 40% carbon dioxide and natural air and 1% carbon dioxide. The quality of biogas must reach the level of natural air, in which the amount of carbon dioxide decreases and the methane content increases. This is achieved by refining biogas. Since the process is expensive, the innovation must be optimized. This can be achieved by ensuring high efficiency of high methane production and reducing energy consumption.
The cost of the biogas refining process is high and thus, increased investment to increase production to meet the growing demand may prove to be a major challenge for the growth of the global biogas processing equipment market during the forecast period.

The market share growth of the water scrubber segment will be significant during the forecast period. Water scrubbing is the traditional process in which carbon dioxide is removed from biogas to form high-quality biomethane. This process uses water as a solvent to remove carbon dioxide. Since the solubility of carbon dioxide in water is much higher than that of methane, the methane content of the gas leaving the scrubber increased. The biomethane produced in this way is approximately 98% pure. The process also removes all traces of hydrogen sulfide.

The water scrubber segment was valued at 1,256.79 million in 2017 and continued to grow by 2021. Water scrubbing is the oldest and most used process because it is simple. It is commercially available in different capacities ranging from 0.2 kWh/Nm3 to 0. 6 kWh/Nm3. The less than 2% decarbonization process requires lower operating costs and is consistent at any flow rate. Water washing technology is constantly being developed and is one of the best technologies for use in various rooms. Therefore, there is a high demand for this technology compared to other technologies, which is expected to lead to the growth of the water purifier segment in the global biogas refining equipment market during the forecast period.

Europe is estimated to contribute 41% to the growth of the global market during the forecast period. Technavio’s analysts have elaborately explained the regional trends and drivers that shape the market during the forecast period.
Bioenergy from renewable energy sources plays a key role in achieving the ambitious target set by the EU - 20 percent of final energy consumption. Most of the European population is still not aware of the benefits of biomethane in vehicles. However, this is changing due to favorable support conditions given by various governments. Germany is highly dependent on oil and gas imports because its reserves are small. The country imports 97% of its oil and more than 85% of its natural gas consumption. Therefore, to improve energy security, the government fully supports the use of renewable energy sources in all sectors, which has accelerated the growth of renewable energy sources such as biofuels, biogas, and refined biogas.
In 2020, the outbreak of COVID-19 severely affected the growth of the industrial sector in Europe. Moreover, the European governments are focusing on adopting clean energy sources for power generation. For instance, the renewable energy directive has set rules for the European Union to achieve its 32% renewables target by 2030. Such factors are expected to drive the demand for clean energy technologies for the generation of clean energy, such as biogas, during the forecast period. Hence, the global biogas upgrading equipment market in Europe is expected to grow positively during the forecast period.
