When methane gas is drained and captured, it can be utilised for power or destroyed in a high-temperature flaring facility.
Hofstetter works in close partnership with WaterGasRenew Pty Ltd in Australia. WaterGasRenew contributes extensive knowledge and practical experience in coal mining operations, mine gas drainage and gas extraction systems.
By combining this specialist mining expertise with Hofstetter’s proven gas treatment and combustion technology, we deliver safe, reliable and fully engineered solutions that meet the most stringent mining regulations and project requirements. The complete engineering package can include FMEA, HAZOP and cause-and-effect analyses.
The HOFGAS-CFM4c high-temperature flare provides safe and environmentally friendly combustion of coal mine gas (Goaf and Coleseam gas). Burns methane from 20 to 95 vol.%.
Customised solutions for safe degasification of coal mines with reliable processing of methane gas for electricity or heat generation.
HOFGAS-CFM4c mobile flare — maximum flexibility during early development or as temporary add-on for peak production.
Each project is supported by a comprehensive engineering package, including FMEA, HAZOP and cause-and-effect analyses, as well as commissioning, operator training and long-term service support.
Our systems are designed and certified in accordance with the latest applicable ATEX requirements. Adjustable to variations in methane concentration across a wide operating range of 20 to 95 vol.% CH₄, ensuring safe, stable and reliable operation.
Our specialists are happy to discuss your project — from custom flare design to complete gas treatment installations.
