April 3 (LNGJ) - Biogest America Inc. has signed a letter of intent for the joint development and financing of a Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) project in Quebec making gas from waste in the Canadian province’s Saint-Nazaire d’Acton area. The company said the venture marked Canada’s first Biogest RNG project and a pivotal moment in the commitment to advancing green-gas initiatives in Quebec.

   The plant planned for Saint-Nazaire d’Acton is expected to produce 105,000 million British thermal units (350 cubic metres per hour) of RNG. “During fermentation, the waste is transformed into high-quality organic fertilizer that substitutes for chemical products. The new project will introduce a novel concept by integrating biochar production. This dual-purpose approach improves RNG production and contributes to sustainable organic waste management,” said Biogest.
