Biogas complexes

Biogas complexes are facilities that capture and process biogas, a renewable energy source produced through the anaerobic digestion of organic matter such as agricultural waste, food waste, and sewage sludge. Eneca Group provides comprehensive planning and design services for these complexes, encompassing all stages from initial feasibility studies and site selection to detailed engineering and BIM management. We design various types of biogas plants, including farm-scale digesters, larger centralized facilities processing municipal waste, and integrated biogas-to-biomethane upgrading plants. Our designs incorporate all necessary infrastructure, including digesters, gas storage tanks, biogas upgrading systems (where applicable), combined heat and power (CHP) units for electricity generation, and effluent management systems. We also consider the integration of other renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind power, to create truly sustainable energy solutions.

Eneca Group's designs for biogas complexes and other energy-producing facilities strictly adhere to all relevant European design and engineering standards, ensuring safety, efficiency, and environmental compliance. Our expertise extends beyond biogas to encompass other renewable energy technologies. We are committed to delivering sustainable facilities that contribute to a cleaner future. Our projects show best practices for minimizing greenhouse gas emissions, managing waste streams responsibly, and maximizing energy efficiency throughout the entire lifecycle of the facility.

The design of a biogas complex should begin with determining the expected production of biogas and organic fertilizer based on the available feedstock, as well as assessing the heat and energy requirements of the customer.

We offer design documentation development to address the following issues:

Selection of the type of gas holder (including the possibility of using a plastic gas holder). Free-standing gas holders (dry or wet) of low pressure are more expensive and are justified only if the distance from the installation to the biogas-using devices is at least 50–100 meters.
Collection and transportation of biogas.
Installation of technological equipment for biogas purification.
Production of electrical and thermal energy.
Development of safety measures to prevent the accumulation of hydrogen sulfide and carbon dioxide.

To make it easier for our customers to take the step into the future of construction, we found a competent and reliable partner in Eneca who understood our needs and was able to implement them quickly. As part of our order, Eneca took over the development of 56 parameterized lighting families in Revit with a high level of detail and information. All models were created in the three national languages and in two formats each using Revit script. This means that future adjustments can also be implemented easily and without any problems. The Eneca team works professionally, quickly and precisely, which underlines their competence in BIM.
Based on their experience, I can recommend Eneca.

We collaborated with Eneca to create a structural Revit model of a residential complex with a floor area of 41,571 m², consisting of six three-story residential buildings with an underground parking garage, based on 2D drawings.

We appreciate Eneca’s readiness to support us with BIM modeling on short notice, as well as their flexibility in providing the necessary resources to meet a strict deadline. All modeling was completed within two weeks, with a division into lots. Eneca’s specialists were always willing to take the time to discuss our concerns and accommodate additional requests.

Eneca’s strong expertise in Revit and professional experience in structural design enabled their team to quickly grasp Implenia’s high modeling requirements. The BIM model was developed in accordance with the 3D BKP Model guidelines and Implenia’s standards, ensuring compliance with parameter and element naming rules as per Baukostenplan Hochbau. Eneca’s detail-oriented and structured approach contributed to the creation of a high-quality BKP model aimed at automating the calculation of construction volumes and costs.

I am pleased with the quality of services provided by ENECA and can confidently recommend them to others in need of similar BIM modeling services.

We have been working closely with Eneca since June 2020. Eneca has proved itself as a trustworthy and responsible partner in steel structural design. We have accomplished more than 10 project areas together and discussed for some other future opportunities. Their engineering team is located abroad, however, the remote work is well-organized.

The design process always requires flexibility and capability to think differently, and we were pleased to see Eneca’s readiness to support us and solve all the project issues together. When there was a need to do some quick revisions at a very late stage, Eneca's specialists performed them in a high qualitative and timely manner. The technical competence and deep Tekla knowledge of Eneca’s team as well as their high-performance efficiency and always keen in continuous improvement, provided us an important support in our engineering process.
