Patented MEPS is a gas-phase photochemical system that uses salt, water and electricity to generate chlorine onsite, which coupled with UV light eradicates low-concentration methane in a closed system. Much of the methane is broken down into hydrochloric acid, which is recycled back into chlorine.

The control system automatically adjusts chlorine levels and UV light power for variable methane concentrations and airflow.

Invented at the University of Copenhagen and proven effective at the university’s Niels Bohr Institute as well as in field tests, MEPS is safe, scalable and affordable. Its modular design makes it easy to adapt MEPS for various size dairy barns, wastewater treatment plants, and biogas production plants that leak methane.
