Waste360 covers data-driven landfills that use modern methane monitoring robots, drone-mounted sensors, and remote automation to achieve cost-effective, safer operations. Meet Robo Dog!
If you’d like to learn more about these methane monitoring, capture, and control technologies, we offer a few resources.
Data-driven landfills and landfill gas (LFG) data collection are critical. Data-driven landfills use real-time monitoring
and advanced analytics to optimize landfill gas (LFG) collection, enhance operational efficiencies, and reduce environmental
risk. By moving beyond traditional, less frequent manual readings, operators can respond proactively to performance issues,
improve methane capture rates, and maximize LFG energy projects’ financial and environmental returns.
For landfill gas operations, keeping the wellfield balanced means aggregating data from multiple systems that comprise
the complex ecosystem within the landfill for analysis. Real-time data helps prevent odors, LFG migration, nuisance complaints, and elevated temperatures.
