Scientific American on Why Controlling Landfill Methane Matters

Controlling Landfill Methane to Combat Climate Change: How Hydryx Leads the Way

A recent Scientific American article highlights why controlling landfill methane is essential to slowing climate change. Methane, mainly produced from organic waste in landfills, has a global warming potential more than 28 times higher than CO₂. With methane leaks from landfills contributing significantly to climate change, effective methane management is a powerful tool to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Hydryx’s advanced technology captures landfill methane, reducing emissions and turning them into renewable energy. Our system continuously monitors gas quality, adjusting extraction to optimize methane capture. This real-time methane management approach prevents leaks, making landfills an unlikely ally in the fight against climate change.

Hydryx’s mission to reduce methane emissions from landfills goes hand in hand with our commitment to renewable energy. By transforming waste into a resource, we help landfill operators reduce their carbon footprint and contribute to sustainable energy production. Together, we’re driving positive climate action and working towards a cleaner, greener future.
