SMALL Landfills – Capture the Methane And Make Energy, too.

How much Municipal Solid Waste is considered the size of
SMALL Landfills / Garbage Dumps?

It used to be I million – 3 million tons of Municipal Solid Waste-in-place.

slide 5 of the presentation

Now-a-days there appears to be no limit to the size of a “Landfill project to produce energy” as long as the people who own it can find
1. an end user for the gas or electricity
2. Funding for the project.

The Landfills/Garbage Dumps discussed in this post range from 360,000 tons to 2.8 million tons of waste-in-place.

fossil fuel is Ancient Waste. But, there’s Plenty of Waste Now!

replacing fossil fuel for energy uses


Are you already a Climate Victim/Refugee?
Are you concerned, upset, even paralyzed by what is happening to our planet Earth?
You don’t know what you can do to help?
You really have not figured out what is going on? So no wonder you don’t know what you can do?

Well, lets think about it this way……..

CH4 Investments Urgent! Today! Landfill Gas (LFG)

One of the quickest ways to reduce Methane in our skies is with such CH4 Investments.

CH4 is Methane!
Methane is half of the GHG in Landfill Gas (RNG).
Saving the planet, at least 1 Landfill a day, every day!

We take the Value from Waste and the Climate Cleans Up!

Cleaner Energy Investments! Time to invest in your Landfill!

Capture Landfill Gas – to Reduce Methane in the atmosphere, contain MSWaste and make cleaner Fuel on the Spot!

We have some very important investments to make
to USE the GAS in the World’s Garbage Dumps
described as a “Bridge Gas”- much cleaner than fossil:
Renewable Natural Gas (RNG)

ISO knows the Value of WASTE! >>> Break-thru

………Essential for Industry!

The International Organization for Standardization (ISO)
at the heart and soul of industrial processes worldwide.

ISO knows the Value of WASTE and Closing-the-Loop

The idea for the ISO Circular Economy committee began with a seminar held by AFNOR, ISO’s member for France. What followed was a French standard, XP X30-901, Circular economy, published in 2018. The response was so positive that an international committee was proposed and ISO/TC 323 began to get to work.
The standards for ISO/TC 323 are to be published in 2024.

We Need To USE THE CO2! …..For Industry – Big Market!

10 of the Big CO2 users in the Market!
Some suffer from Shortages!

Bring down the CO2 and USE IT on the surface of planet Earth!
There is a big market for CO2 as FeedStock for many, many, many industries!!!

SHORT – R. Buckminster Fuller


Pollution is nothing but the resources we are not harvesting. We allow them to disperse because we have been ignorant of their value.

America! Clean Cool Air!! – Back To The Year 1800!!!

A Review: Ezra Klein interviews a Climate Clean-up Expert

America!!! Make it happen in the USofA!
The $370 billion Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) offers oodles of money to get back to Cool Clean Air for YOUR everyday life including tax credits, discounts, and rebates.

BUT, what is the big picture, which of these benefits should YOU use? What will the future bring? Things have already changed, Technology is improving things all the time!

If you have the time and like podcasts….Ezra Klein had a discussion with a climate expert about where we are with the big picture. ….. HOWEVER, I have some comments to make about what has changed since they talked in September.

We CAN deal with the #1 Mistake: fossil fuel – Today

MOST “FUEL” COMES FROM BIOMASS!
ANCIENT OR NEW

and a MISTAKE is a MISTAKE

This is so simple!

It has been a MISTAKE for years!!


For some time now, it has been possible to
FIX THE MISTAKE!
with TODAY’S BIOMASS and WASTE

Too much Methane! NOW! GHG!

You want to know why Australia has been burning up?
this is how I put 2+2 together…….

In this post:
NATURAL GAS = METHANE
I believe I have made a big mistake.
MAKE SURE THE STUFF DOES NOT LEAK!
How did the Permafrost Heat up so much?
Where has this extra methane heat come from?
no doubt, still leaking……..
The USA is not the only country that continues to ignore it

Above Aminmation: A reduction in global burned area in the 2000s had an unexpectedly large impact on methane emissions. (It looks like it is more complicated than that!) JANUARY 2, 2018 Find the full animation here. Credit: NASA/GSFC/SVS.** What’s Important: increase in methane
