The U.S. EPA is tightening up its existing landfill methane regulations. Under its proposals, new, modified and existing landfills will begin collecting and controlling landfill gas at emission levels nearly a third lower than current requirements. For existing landfills, approximately 989 open and closed landfills are expected to be subject to the proposed emission guidelines, 574 of which are already required to collect and control emissions. The agency has noted landfills may control gas by putting it to beneficial use by combusting it in an enclosed combustion device for energy production, or by using a treatment system that processes the collected gas for sale.
During this webinar, learn what the regulations mean for existing, modified, reconstructed and new landfills, explore energy project options with the U.S. EPA’s Landfill Methane Outreach Program, and discover technologies that may suit new landfill gas-to-energy projects or help optimize and enhance existing systems.
