Technology will boost real-time monitoring of remote peatlands

Envirotec Magazine

Researchers will develop new ways to monitor carbon emissions from vast swathes of peatland after winning almost half a million pounds to develop new sensors that can be used in remote areas. Dr Mann and his team will work across the UK to develop low-cost sensor systems that can monitor carbon dioxide and methane emissions from peatlands.

Making light of the matter: Thoughts on measuring methane

Envirotec Magazine

Gas leak measurement is germane to the realisation of goals such as the Global Methane Pledge. Originally proposed by the US and EU in September 2021, the Global Methane Pledge will see countries acting to cut methane emissions by 30 percent by 2030. Doug Baer of instrumentation expert ABB offers some thoughts on the problem.

US landfills emit far more methane than previously known

Grist

Amid the commotion, an invisible gas often escapes unnoticed, warming the planet and harming our health: methane. The researchers found these super-emitting points can persist for months or even years, and account for almost 90 percent of all measured methane from the landfills. times, and sometimes as much as 2.7
