Application of Advanced Characterization Techniques for Identification of Thermogenic and Biogenic Gases

This paper discusses the identification of thermogenic and biogenic gases, the typical sources and characteristics of methane in the natural environment, and the methods of discriminating between different sources of methane. SCS presents a case study where advanced characterization techniques successfully discriminate between landfill and non-landfill sources of methane.
