Water hyacinth in. 200-bar BioCNG out.
Autonomously. At the bus terminal.
No pipeline. No import. No chemist.
BioNode is an AIoT-powered BioCNG Micro-Refinery designed to transform locally available biomass, especially water hyacinth, into compressed biomethane for transportation applications.
The concept combines biomass processing, anaerobic digestion, gas purification, intelligent monitoring, and high-pressure compression into a compact energy system.

BioNode owns, operates, and sells the produced BioCNG. The system creates a potential revenue stream while simultaneously helping remove problematic biomass from local waterways. |
BioNode is designed around an intelligent monitoring and control layer.

- pH
- Biogas composition
- H₂S concentration
- CH₄ concentration
- Gas pressure
- Electrical load
- Digester conditions
BioNode aims to address multiple challenges through one integrated system:
- Water hyacinth management
- Local renewable fuel production
- Reduced dependence on imported fuel
- Waste-to-energy conversion
- Automated energy infrastructure
- Renewable-powered auxiliary systems
- Local energy-service opportunities
BioNode is not just a biogas plant.
It is a concept for a distributed, intelligent, biomass-to-fuel infrastructure where locally available biomass can be converted into usable transportation fuel close to where it is needed.
