What National Association of Clean Air Agencies filed (1)
Nov 2, 2015· Comment submitted by G. Vinson Hellwig, Co-Chair, and Robert H. Colby, C-Chair, Air Toxics Committee, National Association of Clean Air Agencies (NACAA)· EPA-HQ-OAR-2014-0451-0187
Abstract
The control of landfill gas based on the proposed requirements results in emissions reductions of over 30 volatile organic compounds and air toxics such as toluene, benzene, and vinyl chloride. The reduction of these emissions has direct and indirect health benefits, environmental benefits, reductions of methane gas emissions, and reduction of odor problems. Some landfills control landfill gas by combusting it in a boiler, engine, or turbine to produce steam or electricity, taking advantage of landfill gas as a renewable energy source.
