Landfill Methane Capture: The Global Warming Reduction “Quick Win” You’ve Never Heard Of
Concerned about the menacing effects of landfill gas on our environment? You’re not alone, but it’s not as bad as it might be where a landfill has a well-engineered Landfill Methane Capture system installed. In fact, we go so far as to say that landfill methane capture and utilisation is the global warming reduction “Quick […]
Siloxane and Landfill Gas
Siloxane and Landfill Gas: The elimination of VOCs and siloxanes is an important aspect of the LFG conditioning process for any vehicle fuel or pipeline injection project. Engines, turbines, and compressors can be damaged by even trace concentrations of siloxanes, thus they must be eliminated. VOCs are a contaminant that would be sufficiently eliminated in […]

Landfill Gas Collection Systems Defined – UK Facts and Myths
Go no further to read all about landfill gas collection systems. LFG collection systems are defined in the next section, followed by a UK landfill gas collection history. Those are the facts, now for the myths! If you scroll further down on this page we explain some myths about Landfill Gas Collection Systems, and a truth. […]
Methods of Siloxane Removal from Biogas
There are at least 5 methods of siloxane removal from biogas which have been used. This remarkable range of methods is described below. First, we will define what siloxane is and explain why it needs to be removed: Siloxane removal from biogas is imperative to guarantee a consistent performance of frequently used machinery. Machinery like […]
Landfill Gas Cut-Off Trenches for Landfill Gas Migration Control
Landfill gas cut-off Trenches can be successfully used for landfill gas migration control where landfill gas is escaping from a landfill underground and threatening to enter properties, or causing the die-back of trees and vegetation on the landfill perimeter. Landfill Gas Cut-Off Trenches Landfill Gas Cut-Off Trenches can be a simple, and when designed correctly, […]
