Whether reducing methane emissions at landfills, repurposing contaminated properties, producing alternative energy, or sequestering carbon, we have focused on finding smart climate solutions and improving the natural environment since our inception in 1970.
SCS Engineers supports many businesses and municipalities taking steps to address climate change, which many consider the most important challenge facing our planet. Our firm has always been a leader in recovering and utilizing methane from landfills, a potent greenhouse gas. In the last two decades, we’ve expanded our role to include more utilization of biogas from agriculture, carbon sequestration, management of other greenhouse gas and their environmental impacts while continuing to reduce methane production in landfills by diverting organics.
Every business is resource-intensive with most environmental issues occurring during the operational phase of business or production. The sustainable environmental solutions we offer to the agricultural, construction, extraction, manufacturing sectors, and municipalities help them attain their cleaner operating goals and often improve operating efficiency.
As an environmental consulting and construction firm, we produce measurable technologies and programs that capture and reduce more greenhouse gases for private and public clients than any other environmental firm in the Americas.
