For EPCs and procurement
- Lower module purchase costs
- More margin, or a sharper project price
- Straightforward replacement, with compatibility confirmed by your team
Improve your biomethane profitability.
Elastia is a UK materials science company that develops and manufactures membrane modules for biomethane upgrading. The same or better performance, at a lower cost to both the EPC and the end operator.
01 What we offer
Lower costs for the EPC. Better returns for the operator.
For operators and EPC sales
- Lower upgrading energy costs and stronger returns
- More saleable biomethane from higher throughput
- Better lifetime economics from lower degradation
- Higher-value gas, where specifications and conditioning allow
Monitor AI. We can provide a digital twin of the modules to monitor and improve their performance.
02 Performance and evidence
The results behind the economics.
Lower module costs
20–30%
indicative reduction in module purchase cost
The same biomethane purity with approximately 30% less membrane material, which makes up most of a module's cost.

CH₄ and CO₂ product purity, after conditioning
More saleable biomethane, and gas for higher-value applications.
Better lifetime economics
5,000+ h
of comparative testing logged, and ongoing
Lower performance degradation than all major competitor materials tested.
Based on previous experimental and live-site results. These outcomes are not all achieved simultaneously; benefits depend on feed gas, configuration and project priorities.
We can offer experimental and simulation data upon request →03 Our technology
Innovative materials science, built into a module.
Built on more than a decade of UK research. We design membrane materials at the molecular level.
- PermeabilityCO₂ passes through more easily, so less membrane does the job.
- SelectivityA cleaner split from methane, for purer product gas.
- DurabilityPerformance holds for longer.
We model performance against your product specification stage by stage, including oxygen.
Formats. Standard 4-, 6- and 8-inch modules, with custom 12–16-inch diameters on request. End connections designed around common upgrader configurations. Replace cartridges at changeover, or run ours in parallel first. Technical data sheet on request →

Feedstocks
We are testing agricultural-waste biogas and landfill gas. We welcome opportunities to test across all biogas feedstocks.
04 Joint technical evaluation
Start with a conversation.
We offer a free initial modelled comparison based on your high-level parameters, returned within one to two weeks. We then discuss next steps based on the results.

More value from every gas stream
Biomethane upgrading is our focus today. Our wider ambition is to apply gas separation technologies to circular processes that turn waste-derived gases into valuable and sustainable energy and chemicals products.
