Our application areas
BPC Instruments provides automated systems for laboratory based gas measurement, respirometry and biological process analysis. Our instruments are used across biogas, biodegradability, animal and human nutrition, and wastewater treatment, where reliable gas data helps laboratories evaluate materials, processes and biological activity.
- Gas volume and flow measurement
- Automated laboratory workflows
- Bioprocess and material analysis

How BPC supports your application
Different application areas require different methods, test conditions and measurement ranges. BPC Instruments combines automated gas measurement, application knowledge and dedicated instrument platforms to help laboratories generate structured data from biological processes.
Below you can explore how our instruments are used in each application area.

Biogas and Biomethane
Evaluate feedstocks, methane potential and anaerobic process behaviour with automated gas measurement.

Biodegradability and Compostability
Follow how materials break down under controlled aerobic, anaerobic and composting conditions.

Animal and Human Nutrition
Measure fermentation behaviour of feed, food and gut models using in vitro gas production analysis.

Wastewater Treatment
Analyse biological activity and gas production in wastewater, sludge and environmental biotechnology workflows.

Biohydrogen
Evaluate feedstocks, microorganisms and process conditions through automated gas measurement in dark fermentation studies.
90+
countries
Our instruments are used by laboratories, research institutes and industrial customers across more than 90 countries.
20+
years
More than two decades of experience in automated gas measurement, respirometry and biological process analysis.
1,000+
scientific publications
Referenced in research across biogas, biodegradability, nutrition and environmental biotechnology.
One measurement method across several fields
Our instruments are used in different application areas, but the core measurement challenge is often similar. Laboratories need reliable data from biological processes where gas production, gas consumption or gas flow can show how materials, microorganisms or process conditions behave over time.
Our systems automate these measurements, reducing inconsistent data, manual labour and custom built setups.
