Landfill Gas Extraction Systems and the Equipment Used for Energy Recovery
In this article, we discuss landfill gas extraction systems and how the landfill gas collected is used to create renewable energy. Waste heat is used in a combined heat & power (CHP) system to improve overall efficiency. Landfill gas (LFG) is extracted from the landfill by exerting a small negative suction pressure on boreholes driven […]
Landfill Gas Capture: Advancing U.S. Emissions Reduction Through Technology and Policy
Harnessing Landfill Gas: Progress and Challenges in U.S. Emissions Reduction Efforts The management of landfill-derived gas represents one of the most significant opportunities in America’s climate strategy. As a potent greenhouse gas with 28-36 times the warming potential of carbon dioxide over a 100-year period, methane demands urgent attention from policymakers, waste management professionals, and […]
