Recovery of landfill gasses and conversion into electricity and full remediation of landfill sites.
Turning Landfill Gas Into Sustainable Energy
Advanced Landfill Gas Recovery Solutions by SophSys
Landfills are one of the largest uncontrolled sources of harmful greenhouse gases worldwide. As organic waste decomposes, dangerous and explosive gases such as methane (CH₄) and hydrogen (H₂) are released into the atmosphere. These landfill gases contribute significantly to climate change, pose serious safety risks, and are a leading cause of landfill fires and explosions.
SophSys provides proven, high-performance solutions for landfill gas capture, control, and energy recovery, transforming environmental liabilities into valuable renewable energy assets.
Why Landfill Gas Capture Is Critical
Uncontrolled landfill gas emissions have far-reaching consequences:
- Methane is up to 28 times more harmful than CO₂ as a greenhouse gas
- Increased risk of fires, explosions, and structural instability
- Severe environmental pollution of soil, air, and surrounding ecosystems
- Loss of potential renewable energy and revenue
Capturing landfill gas is no longer optional—it is an environmental, safety, and economic necessity.
SophSys Landfill Mining & Gas Recovery Technology
SophSys specializes in the retrofitting and optimization of existing landfill sites through advanced landfill mining and gas recovery systems.
Our approach includes:
- Design and installation of integrated underground pipe networks within active or closed landfills
- Continuous extraction of methane, hydrogen, and other landfill gases
- Safe transport of gases to high-efficiency landfill gas generators
- Conversion of captured gas into clean, renewable energy
With SophSys technology, landfill sites can generate up to 1 MW of electricity per hour, depending on size and gas yield.
