Rosetti said it wants to position itself as an integrated contractor for the entire biogas treatment line.
“The GreenMethane operation is, therefore, part of a wide-ranging business project that aims to consolidate Rosetti Marino s position as a leading player in the energy systems market, both in the current context of energy transition and in a future characterised mainly by the use of renewable sources and the circular economy,” it said.
The GreenMethane technology also gives Rosetti access to CO2 capture technologies, it added.
GreenMethane has developed a proprietary technology to upgrade biogas into biomethane using a process that removes carbon dioxide from biogas.
