Add the reliability where it matters most
Vilter technology and industry expertise delivers the uptime and dependability needed in demanding Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) applications. More than 145 operating plants in North America rely on Vilter by Copeland single screw compression technology for consistent and quality production.
Make it easy. There is variability with gas quality specifications, utility negotiations, feed stocks, local and federal incentives, and various entities involved in a project. Vilter by Copeland innovation and expertise can help you navigate the options including:
- Blower skids to boost the initial biogas to maintain pressure across contaminant removal and optimize inlet pressure to the feed gas compressor
- Low-pressure and high-pressure chilling skids to dehydrate the biogas upstream and downstream of the feed gas compressor
- Single-screw feed gas compressor technology to pressurize the biogas upstream of the Carbon Dioxide removal technology
- Single-screw recycle and vacuum compressors or feed gas compressor for Nitrogen removal depending on the technology selected
- Single-screw product gas compressor technology to boost the biomethane to pipeline pressure including the unique Vilter High Pressure Low Displacement compressor model
- Fuel gas booster to provide pressurized biogas to a gas turbine for combined heat and power (CHP) technology.

Our Experience Has You Covered
Single Screw Compressors Deliver Scalability Across Balance of Plant
Vilter single screw compressors use a rotary, positive displacement compressor design to provide the lowest lifecycle costs and highest reliability of all gas compressors. A balanced design provides quiet and reliable operation, even while performing at pressures over 1,100 PSI.
Small Livestock Operations Can Corral Big Efficiency
Smaller operations possess the potential to capture methane and reuse it as a valuable secondary product, like natural gas. Even those with fewer than 500 head can tap into this source of savings and efficiency. Look to Vilter industrial compressor technology for a right-sized biogas recovery system.
Learn how to maintain and service Vilter™ industrial compressor equipment with hands-on technical training from a certified staff.
Aggressive growth plans of a biofuel provider demanded that vital compression solutions could support an additional 40 – 50 dairy farms in the region. By delivering up to 99 percent uptime, the durable Vilter compressors helped the company realize its ambitious objectives.
Carbon capture and sequestration (CCS), also known simply as carbon capture, offers the opportunity to boost profitability while reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Industrial facilities like ethanol, cement and chemical production plants that emit carbon dioxide can significantly benefit from this process. Balance of plant solutions start with proven front-end engineering and builds in reliable uptime with durable equipment for quality compression and dehydration.
How does one of the largest landfills in the U.S. turn an $80,000 annual expense into a million-dollar revenue stream? By building a landfill gas processing facility that uses a gas compression system based on 17 Vilter single screw compressors to generate usable energy from methane waste gas — reducing overall emissions by 63%.
As a compressor manufacturer and part of Emerson’s hydrocarbon industry presence, Vilter was uniquely positioned to provide a custom packaged compressor system. The gas compressor package was factory-engineered, assembled, and designed to conform with all applicable industry, county/local codes and customer specifications.
