Landfills are responsible for 17% of overall U.S. methane emissions. Under Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulations, landfills are obligated to report emissions and are required to collect and flare methane containing gas, due to lack of other solutions, such as grid interconnection and pipeline infrastructure. By converting low-grade, stranded energy resources such as landfill gas, biogas, and waste biomass into valuable chemicals.
Emvolon not only reduces methane emissions but also provides a profitable outlet for these overlooked resources.
