LUND, Sweden, May 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- BPC Instruments AB (publ) ("BPC") has entered a strategic collaboration with the Agricultural Utilization Research Institute ("AURI") to improve the quality, comparability, and decision-relevance of anaerobic digestion experimentation in the United States. Through a three-year partnership, BPC and AURI will work together to support industrial decision-making and research to help expand new biogas market opportunities.
The goal of the collaboration is to accelerate the adoption of rigorous anaerobic digestion testing methodologies and sound interpretation practices, particularly for agricultural and bioindustrial applications. Key areas of the collaboration include applied research and professional services, education and workforce capacity building, and training on BPC's instruments.
"This cooperative effort reflects our shared commitment to delivering high-quality, well-interpreted data to enable faster and better decision making," says Dr. Jing Liu, CEO of BPC Instruments. "We look forward to enabling high-quality data for anaerobic digestion experimentation through AURI's connections to the U.S. bioindustrial and agricultural markets and their ongoing biogas research and development."
The BPC and AURI teams will work together at AURI's Bioindustrial Innovation Center in Waseca, Minnesota, to enable aligned method development, coordinated responses on professional services, and hands-on training for equipment operators.
"We're excited to leverage BPC's technical expertise through its highly regarded equipment offerings and analysis to strengthen anaerobic digestion decision making and the expansion of biogas opportunities in Minnesota and the United States," notes Shannon Schlecht, AURI executive director. "This collaboration will further help us uncover the potential of tapping into agricultural residues and organic waste streams for renewable energy in Minnesota and across the country."
This is a non-exclusive collaboration between AURI and BPC, grounded in best-practice experimentation and data quality to support the growing biogas sector.
