Biogas upgrading equipment refers to the machinery and technology used to purify raw biogas into high-quality biomethane or renewable natural gas (RNG), suitable for injection into the natural gas grid or use as a transportation fuel. They are essential for converting biogas from organic waste into a clean, renewable energy resource used in applications ranging from power generation and heating to vehicle fueling and industrial processes.
The main types of biogas upgrading equipment are chemical scrubber, water scrubber, pressure swing adsorption (PSA), and membrane. Chemical scrubber is a device used to remove harmful gases or particulates from industrial exhaust streams or process gases. The feedstock includes municipal solid waste, agricultural residues, wastewater sludge, food waste, industrial organic waste, and others are used by wastewater treatment plants, landfills, agricultural digesters, industrial facilities, commercial and residential, and other end-users.
Tariffs have impacted the biogas upgrading equipment market by increasing costs of imported membranes, compressors, control systems, and specialized upgrading components. Higher duties have affected membrane and psa based systems, particularly in regions such as Asia Pacific and Latin America that rely on imported equipment. Project capital costs for wastewater treatment plants and agricultural digesters have risen. However, tariffs are encouraging domestic equipment manufacturing, local assembly facilities, and long term development of regional renewable gas supply chains.

This biogas upgrading equipment market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The biogas upgrading equipment market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $2.51 billion in 2025 to $2.9 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 15.7%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growth in biogas production plants, waste management regulations, demand for cleaner energy sources, landfill gas utilization, agricultural digester adoption.
The biogas upgrading equipment market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $5.25 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16.0%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to renewable energy targets, expansion of rng fuel infrastructure, investments in circular economy projects, demand for grid quality biomethane, technological advancements in gas separation. Major trends in the forecast period include rising adoption of membrane based upgrading systems, growing use of pressure swing adsorption technologies, expansion of renewable natural gas injection projects, increased deployment in transportation fuel applications, focus on high efficiency and methane recovery.
The rising demand for renewable energy sources is expected to drive the growth of the biogas upgrading equipment market in the coming years. This increasing demand is driven by environmental, economic, technological, and policy factors, reflecting a shift toward a more sustainable and resilient energy future. Biogas upgrading equipment plays a vital role in unlocking the potential of biogas as a renewable energy source by enabling efficient organic waste management and supporting the transition to a cleaner and more resilient energy system. For example, in December 2024, Eurostat, a Luxembourg-based government agency and Directorate-General of the European Commission, reported that renewable sources accounted for 24.5% of gross final energy consumption in the EU in 2023, an increase of 1.4 percentage points compared with 2022. Therefore, the growing demand for renewable energy sources is fueling the expansion of the biogas upgrading equipment market.
Major companies operating in the biogas upgrading equipment market are increasing their focus on developing innovative products, such as VALKYRIE ECO and VALKYRIE ECO FLEX H2S for agricultural biogas and landfill gas (LFG) operations. VALKYRIE ECO is a fixed gas detector that provides continuous monitoring of H2S levels in industrial environments where the presence of this gas can pose a health and safety risk, whereas VALKYRIE ECO FLEX H2S is a portable gas detector that offers flexibility in monitoring H2S levels in different work environments. For instance, in May 2023, Streamline Innovations Inc., a US-based manufacturer of gas detection and monitoring equipment, launched VALKYRIE ECO and VALKYRIE ECO FLEX H2S, designed for H2S treatment in biogas-to-RNG (renewable natural gas) upgrading applications, offering an efficient and green H2S removal solution for upgrading biogas to RNG. Both solutions remove H2S in an environmentally friendly manner using TALON, a non-toxic and biodegradable redox chemistry. They are engineered to function efficiently in lower gas pressure settings, commonly encountered in landfill gas and biogas applications. Crucially, the modular design of the VALKYRIE ECO FLEX model enables users to gradually increase treating capacity based on different LFG gas stream quantities.
In February 2023, Shell Petroleum NV, a Netherlands-based oil and gas company, acquired Nature Energy Biogas A/S for $2 billion. This acquisition expands Shell's portfolio, integrated Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) value chain support, and expertise in biogas plant technology, significantly impacting the biogas upgrading equipment market with potential advancements and efficiency enhancements. Nature Energy Biogas A/S is a Denmark-based company that is involved in the production and upgrading of biogas.
