We are looking forward to attending the Landfill Methane Measurement Meeting. It was take place on October 29-30, 2024, at the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) Campus in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina.
This 2-day meeting is sponsored by the USEPA and will focus on the development of (and benefits associated with) advanced methane monitoring technologies as applied to landfill monitoring.
In recent years, investment in novel sensing technology for the location and remediation of methane leaks in the landfill sector has grown exponentially with the help of significant funding from the private and public sectors, including research conducted by academic institutions. The meeting is designed to highlight the state of these advancing technologies including their ability to detect and quantify methane and to discuss if/how these technologies might fit into a regulatory framework.
Technology developers, regulating agencies, researchers, regulated communities and other stakeholders interested in learning more about emerging methane detection technologies used to monitor and detect landfill methane emissions are encouraged to participate.
Registration is closed.
If you would like to attend this event and were not able to registered before the deadline, please contact, Nan Albaladejo by email () or by phone (703-705-4438) to be registered manually.
