Abstract
The paper summarizes ongoing EPA research on landfill gas (LFG) utilization. Research was conducted to identify technical issues and solutions through interviews conducted with industry experts in the U.S., Europe, and Australia. The paper provides summary statistics and industry trends and a discussion of the nontechnical and technical issues and solutions. Other EPA research discussed is a recent overview of emerging technologies for LFG utilization and research regarding the demonstration of fuel cells for LFG utilization.
