Bionersis :

A pioneer company in its sector, Bionersis is a global player in the production of renewable energies and the reduction of greenhouse gases. Bionersis recovers the landfill gas generated by household waste sites.
Bionersis designs, installs and exploits installations to:
  • Recuperate and eliminate landfill gas,
  • Produce and export electricity
  • sells the electricity produced from the combustion of the harnessed methane
  • sells the carbon credits from the combustion of the methane.

Process : A network of wells (vertical or horizontal) is installed in the landfill site.This network is interconnected and linked by a central collector to an exhaust flare. The exhausting depresses the site and forces the extraction. After being processed once, the landfill gases generated by the landfill waste are eliminated under controlled conditions. This system is more efficient than simple gas vent systems (passive ventilation), which, in the majority of cases encountered in the field, allow, at best, 10 to 15% of the landfill gas generated by the waste to be sent into the atmosphere without being destroyed. During this phase, Bionersis analyses the flows, as well as the characteristics of the gas emissions.An additional installation for processing and cleaning the gas will enable us to produce a gas that can fuel a generator that produces electricity sold directly to the consumer or delivered through the network. 
Bionersis has performed a private investment transaction with qualified investors, in the form of a capital increase which made it possible to raise 15 millions euros
