Bio-CNG: Clean, Green Fuel that is Good for the Environment and Good for your Car Biogas, or renewable natural gas (RNG), is a gas that is produced from organic waste matter generated at landfill sites, waste water treatment plants or...
Natural gas extracted by the process of hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, generates income and provides employment opportunities, and when it is done properly, can reduce water use, air pollution and atmospheric emissions compared to coal and even nuclear power. However,...
Natural gas is hailed as a cleaner source of energy than coal, as when it is burned it generates half the amount of carbon dioxide that coal does. However, when natural gas is extracted some leakage occurs, and these natural...
A biogas digested (or biodigester) breaks down organic matter in an anaerobic biological process that not only decomposes plant and animal matter, but produces biogas (consisting of methane and carbon dioxide). Many types of organic waste products can be used...
When it comes to caring for patients, decisions that can mean the difference between life or death need to be taken regularly. These decisions very often need to be made by health care practitioners working to tight schedules, in a...
Methane gas is a colorless, odorless natural gas that is released from animal feed lots, natural gas and oil extraction wells and their associated pipelines, as well as landfill sites. Methane gas poses several safety and environmental problems, and consequently...
Controlling Methane Production in Groundwater Proximal to Landfill Settings Jim Mueller, PhD (Provectus Enviromental Products, Inc – Freeport IL), and Ramon Rivera (Diamond Systems, LLC –Titusville, FL) Introduction Over the past 25 years, various remedial amendments have been used to...
Landfill gas monitoring usually includes monitoring of CH4, CO2, and O2. There are several such devices available although the GEM 5000 Gas Analyser from Diamond Scientific is a very small and light unit that is a portable gas analyzer. The...
A Methane Gas Detector is usually a basic hand held device. This device is capable of measuring the concentration of methane gas at a certain location. It has high accuracy since it is very sensitive. This is the reason why...
