Product Definition

What Is a Gas Storage Membrane?

A gas storage membrane is a reinforced flexible technical fabric used to contain, store and regulate low-pressure gases in renewable energy and industrial process systems. In biogas applications, it is commonly used as the inner gas-holding membrane, outer weather-protection membrane or bottom sealing membrane in double membrane gas holders, domes, digesters and gas bags.

Unlike ordinary waterproof covers, a professional gas storage membrane must balance low gas permeability, high tensile strength, controlled elongation, chemical resistance, UV aging resistance, welding stability and long-term outdoor durability. For EPC contractors, gas holder fabricators and biogas system builders, the membrane specification directly affects gas retention, safety, service life and maintenance cost.

Stores methane-rich biogas before CHP, heating, upgrading or process-energy use.
Supports pressure stability in air-supported double membrane structures.
Can be customized for tank-mounted, slab-mounted and dome-style systems.
Helps reduce odor, emissions and gas loss when matched correctly.

Buyer Requirements

Key Features Buyers Expect from Competitive Gas Storage Membrane

DERFLEX focuses on the membrane material layer: base fabric, coating formulation, gas barrier direction, surface durability and repeatable OEM supply.

01

Low Gas Permeability

Gas containment is the core function. DERFLEX membrane structures can be developed with low-permeability coating directions to help reduce methane loss and improve energy recovery.

02

High Tensile & Tear Strength

Reinforced polyester base fabric provides dimensional stability and mechanical strength for internal pressure, wind load, installation tension and repeated gas-volume movement.

03

UV & Weather Resistance

Outer membrane surfaces can be customized with UV-stabilized PVC or PVDF surface options for long-term sunlight, rain, temperature fluctuation and outdoor exposure.

04

H₂S & Chemical Resistance

Biogas may contain moisture, carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, ammonia and organic condensate. Coating selection should match actual gas composition and exposure level.

05

Reliable Welding Performance

Consistent coating and fabric structure support high-frequency welding, radio-frequency welding or hot-air welding for prefabricated panels and field assembly.

Selection Guide

How to Choose the Right Gas Storage Membrane

A buyer should not select membrane material only by price. The right specification comes from system design, gas composition, climate and fabrication method.

1. Confirm System Type

Double membrane gas holder, digester cover, biogas dome, gas bag, lagoon cover or tank-mounted storage roof each has different inner/outer membrane requirements.

2. Define Gas Composition

Methane concentration, CO₂, moisture, H₂S, ammonia and condensate levels influence coating formulation and chemical resistance.

3. Check Pressure & Volume

Operating pressure, pressure fluctuation, storage volume and membrane movement affect tensile strength, elongation and seam safety margin.

4. Review Climate Load

UV level, rainfall, temperature, wind load and snow load determine outer membrane weight, surface treatment and reinforcement needs.

5. Match Welding Method

HF welding, RF welding and hot-air welding require consistent coating behavior to support seam strength and repeatable panel fabrication.

6. Set Service-Life Target

10-year, 15-year or premium long-service projects may require PVDF surface, higher UV formulation, special testing and stricter QC documentation.

Comparison

DERFLEX Gas Storage Membrane vs Generic Cover Materials

For gas containment, a generic waterproof cover is not enough. Gas storage requires gas barrier performance, welding consistency and application-specific engineering.

Comparison Item	DERFLEX Gas Storage Membrane	Ordinary PVC Tarp	PE Film / Light Cover
Gas-Tight Direction	Developed for methane-rich biogas containment and low permeability requirements	Usually designed for waterproof covering, not gas storage	Limited gas barrier performance for long-term storage
Structural Strength	Reinforced polyester base fabric with project-based tensile and tear options	May have useful strength but not optimized for pressure cycling	Lower strength and more vulnerable to puncture or tearing
Outdoor Durability	UV-resistant PVC or PVDF surface options for exposed gas holder roofs	Moderate outdoor life depending on grade	Often short-term or temporary outdoor use
Chemical Resistance	Matched to H₂S, moisture, ammonia and biogas condensate exposure	Not always suitable for anaerobic digestion environments	Limited chemical and weather resistance
Welding Reliability	Formulated for HF, RF or hot-air welding and repeatable panel fabrication	Weldability varies by fabric and coating grade	Limited or difficult for strong gas-tight seams
Best Use	Biogas holders, digesters, domes, gas bags and OEM gas storage systems	General industrial covers, tarps and temporary protection	Temporary covering or low-cost liner use

FAQ

Gas Storage Membrane FAQ

Answers for EPC contractors, biogas equipment builders, wastewater treatment projects and OEM membrane fabricators.

What is a gas storage membrane?

A gas storage membrane is a reinforced, gas-tight flexible membrane used to store or contain low-pressure gas, especially methane-rich biogas produced by anaerobic digestion. It is commonly used in double membrane gas holders, digesters, gas domes and flexible gas bags.

What is the difference between inner and outer gas holder membranes?

The inner membrane usually stores biogas and must focus on gas tightness and chemical resistance. The outer membrane maintains structure shape and protects the system from UV, rain, wind and weather loads.

Can DERFLEX supply membrane for double membrane gas holders?

Yes. DERFLEX supplies membrane materials for both inner gas storage membranes and outer protective membranes used in double membrane gas holder systems, tank-mounted covers and gas domes.

What material is used for gas storage membranes?

Common material directions include PVC coated polyester fabric, PVC/PVDF coated fabric and TPU coated fabric. The best choice depends on gas composition, pressure, welding method, UV exposure, fire-retardant requirement and project service life.

Can gas storage membrane be welded?

Yes. DERFLEX gas storage membranes can be designed for high-frequency welding, RF welding or hot-air welding, depending on the coating formulation and fabrication workflow.
