<dim:field mdschema="dc" element="description" qualifier="abstract" lang="en">Methods for upgrading biogas to vehicular standards, to reduce the need for petrol and diesel, are examined if feasible for small-scale&#xd;
upgrading. Water Scrubber adsorption and Membrane biogas separation where found feasible.&#xd;
&#xd;
The water scrubber system was found the only available option for upgrading gas from the WWTP anaerobic digester in Vífilfell, being the&#xd;
only one commercially available to upgrade gas for the flow rate&#xd;
in Vífilfell, results show that it is a realistic option for the company if they use the gas for the company vehicles.&#xd;
&#xd;
Dairy-Farm-scale upgrading was found only financially possible for larger farms, with at least 130-140 dairy cows producing more than&#xd;
20Nm3/hr of raw gas. Without any financial support the initial cost becomes too high for farms with fewer dairy cows.</dim:field>
