The crew spent the day at a landfill site in Carlsbad, CA, performing trenching and installing 8” lateral pipes as part of a new Landfill Gas Collection and Control System. From reviewing safety protocols and Crew Action Plans to precision trenching and pipe fusing, their attention to detail was important. Working near an active landing strip added unique challenges, including FAA requirements for high-visibility flags on equipment and strict adherence to access protocols. The crew tackled every task with professionalism and efficiency, ensuring the project stays on track. Impressive teamwork and dedication all around! #LandfillGas #SafetyFirst #SCSEngineers #Sustainability #WasteManagement

Thanks to the The Trade Council of Denmark in North America - Energy and Environment, top leaders of the ABC went to Denmark last month to see (practically) everything #DanishBiogas! ABC Chair Bernie Sheff, Executive Director Patrick Serfass and VP of Policy Heather Dziedzic toured multiple biogas facilities and biogas technology suppliers across?#Denmark, learning?about the most advanced biogas technologies in use. Denmark is one of the world’s leading nations when it comes to innovative agricultural practices, waste management, and biogas value chain solutions. In fact, biogas makes up nearly 40% of Denmark’s the natural gas consumption, and the Danish government has committed to ensuring the country’s gas grid is #100% biomethane by 2030! Biogas is considered a key element in the sustainability of Denmark’s #agricultural sector and the #decarbonization of Danish industry. The group included friends from ABC member companies Roeslein Alternative Energy, Bioenergy Devco, M-RETS, and Canadian Biogas Association , among others, led by Frederik Hyldgaard Thomsen and Alex Ripley. The first 2 days included presentations and/or tours from the Danish Energy Agency, State of Green Denmark, the Danish Agriculture and Food Council, Biogas Danmark, the Export and Investment Fund of Denmark, Energinet, Ammongas, Gemidan Ecogi A/S, Grainit, Sustainable Bio Solutions, Nature Energy, and Bigadan A/S, which operates the largest RNG digester system in the world, handling ~1 million tons of biomass/year and producing more than 41 million nM3 of biomethane each year!

What's something we're thankful for?? Our Viper Imaging and Fire Rover Systems! Fires are a common occurrence at landfills and recycling facilities. The Viper Imaging (at the Landfill) and Fire Rover (at the Recycling Center) systems detect heat and alert staff of hot spots in our working face, tipping floor, and bale storage. The Fire Rover can also suppress the fire until the fire department arrives. Help us not have to use these systems by disposing of batteries safely at our Electronics Recovery Center or by using the after-hours drop box at our recycling campus!
