WHY THE SUBSURFACE MATTERS FOR EMISSIONS
MANAGEMENT
Landfill methane emissions fluctuate due to operational practices, landfill moisture, content and temperature. To reduce methane gas emissions, we need to see them and understand where they are coming from. Link what lies within and under the landfill to the fluctuations and presence of methane emissions and hotspots. Site-specific mitigation strategies can effectively reduce methane emissions and their impact on the environment.
High-Resolution Methane Emissions Platform
USE MUD® SAR LANDFILL ANALYTICS
Change the way you see and measure methane emissions. MUD® SAR analytics provide unparalleled visibility into landfills to pinpoint the quantity and source of methane emissions and hotspots.
MUD® SAR empowers users to:
-
SEE: View emissions and hotspots in cell and site specific locations with the highest resolution satellite data commercially available.
-
LINK: Reveal site-specific trends, geohazards and conditions within and under the landfill, down to 100m (300ft)
-
ACT: to detected risk conditions to reduce emissions and verify LFG recovery programs while keeping the site fully operational

Calculate Airspace Value
Landfills across the globe are running out of space. Until we reach zero waste we need solutions that optimize landfill airspace and capacity. Maximize your greatest asset. Determine landfill volumes with MUD® SAR volume change models to ensure adequate landfill space is available and plan for future needs in individual cells or an entire landfill site.
Get the whole methane emissions picture
To understand what is happening with methane gas emissions, you need to see them.
Auracle’s platform, MUD® SAR Emission Analytics gives an accurate view of methane emissions, in the highest resolution commercially available.
Tackle invisible methane emissions to reduce cell-specific methane emissions by detecting and quantifying surface methane emission locations, emission rates at each location and total quantity methane emissions in a landfill site.


Link Landfill Conditions to Methane Emissions
To develop site-specific mitigation strategies you have to detect and measure methane emissions while simultaneously identifying specific subsurface risks that may contribute to the presence and fluctuations of methane emissions.
Like an X-ray for the earth, ®MUD penetrates the landfill surface to depths of 100 m., and monitors subsurface conditions overtime, without the use of probes, sensors or the need for direct human contact.
TRENDING INSIGHTS
Detect Hotspots within the Landfill
MUD® satellite deep penetrating radar penetrates and maps the underwater terrain and to identify submerged obstacles, a feat previously considered impossible. The tactical applications for this technology are only limited by one’s imagination.
Hydrographic reconnaissance could potentially be accomplished amphibious assault force is still over the horizon and without risking lives or detection. Maritime mines can be detected and mapped. Communications cables, pipelines and other linear features could be mapped.
