Renewable Natural Gas
Renewable Natural Gas (RNG), also known as biomethane is a sustainable and environmentally friendly alternative to traditional natural gas. It is produced from biogas which is generated through the anaerobic digestion of various sources of agricultural and organic waste. In order to upgrade biogas to RNG, a RNG Upgrader system is used. At PlanET, we developed a modular, energy efficient solution called STATERON. There are two types of STATERON technology, the STATERON M-Series and the STATERON P-Series.
Harnessing RNG with PlanET’s STATERON Upgrader in Lethbridge
This video of Skymar Biogas (formerly Lethbridge Biogas) in Alberta, CA highlights one of our STATERON RNG Upgraders. This facility began as an Anaerobic Digester and CHP plant in 2013 and then expanded with an RNG Upgrader in 2021.

RNG has many advantages. It can be used interchangeably with conventional natural gas in existing infrastructure, appliances and applications. This means RNG can be injected into natural gas pipelines to be used for heating, cooking, electricity generation and transportation in the same way as conventional natural gas.
PlanET builts its reputation on delivering modular, energy efficient solutions that are focused on lifecycle value and customer operability. We took this same approach when we developed PlanET STATERON.
Our Technologies
PlanET STATERON offers two types of technology, creating a turn-key solution for each of our customers’ unique requirements, ensuring optimal efficiency and operational uptime.
Our technologies offer these advantages:
- Industry leading methane yield and recovery
- Selected high-quality plant components
- Best in class energy efficiency for lower OPEX
- Fully automated system that is easy to operate
STATERON M-Series
Our STATERON M-Series is a packaged 3-stage membrane system where CO2 is stripped out by membranes. This uses the the principle of selective permeability.
STATERON P-Series
Our STATERON P-Series uses Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) technology, a widely used process in the gas industry.
