Environmental Monitoring Needs

The environmental health hazards from disposal sites and landfills are among the most difficult to characterize due to the unknown contaminants that may been discarded in them. It is commonly required to monitor dust and gases during all phases of a landfill closure, and often for years thereafter.

Greenlight Solution

The Greenlight System can be used to monitor landfill above-surface ambient air for volatile, organic contaminants that can be triggers for odors, interstitial gas fluctuations. In addition the Greenlight System uses monitored wind speed and direction to determine if backdrop sources are affecting readings as well as the mapping and recording travel patterns of potential hazards.
