New three year partnership to integrate cutting edge instrumentation and biogas management systems in Europe and Middle East

Leading environmental sampling equipment manufacturer QED Environmental Systems Ltd has signed an important partnership contract with Swiss Hofstetter, to supply and integrate biogas analysers across Europe and the Middle East for the very innovative solutions developed by Hofstetter for gas treatment, gas cogeneration and landfill leachate treatment.

The three-year contract will see QED supply both portable and fixed biogas analysers, such as the Geotech Biogas 3000, which will be used to analyse gas in Hofstetter latest flares/treatment skids/cogeneration engine/leachate solutions for the waste management sector.

The ATEX certified Geotech Biogas 3000 builds on field-proven, robust gas analysis technology to offer cost effective online monitoring with local data outputs. It is designed to enable site operations to maximise gas production yield and protect expensive capital equipment from the damaging contaminant gases contained within the production process.

During the peak of the UK coronavirus pandemic, QED Major Account Manager, Graham Sanders, developed a three-year solution to Hofstetter’s needs: “We’re so pleased to offer a valuable solution to Hofstetter’s latest production innovation using gas analysers from across our product range.”

Guillermo Pomphile, Hofstetter General Manager, said: “We’re delighted to be working with QED and their flexibility and product development means we are able to implement a solution that meets our needs.”

HOFSTETTER Switzerland is one of the most experienced company in biogas and landfill gas management, landfill leachate management and smell reduction solutions. The technical team of Hofstetter is the team who invented in early 1970’s many revolutionary technologies like flares for safe extraction and burning of biogas and landfill gas, landfill leachate treatment plants, special solutions for smells reductions and one of the firsts cogeneration engines for landfill gas projects. From the factory in Switzerland more than 2000 references were delivered worldwide.

The existing team which still includes few of the initial team members is still innovating and this year released a new very innovative product called Auttonomous™ – ‘our complete, integrated and self-sustainable solution for the management of off-grid landfills’.

In the last five years more than 200 references were installed all over the world to also prove the practical vision of the company, which is: To create a better environment for future generations!
