AirSENCE- Landfill Site Air Quality Monitoring System

Low-cost and portable AirSENCE can effectively measure temporal and spatial distribution of a wide range of air quality parameters around landfills.

The cost effective and easy to install AirSENCE devices can be deployed to provide important measurements on Greenhouse Gases (GHGs),Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) and H₂S in addition to multiple air quality parameters.

Assist environmental regulators in making sound decisions when it comes to human well-being by providing real-time, reliable, and transparent datasets.

How waste in Landfills causes air pollution?

Landfills continue to grow and significantly impact environment in many ways. One of which is a mixture of gases and obnoxious odors, which is a primary component to landfill emission. Vulnerable populations like children, older adults, people with chronic conditions such as heart diseases, asthma and other respiratory ailments are especially susceptible to air pollution.

Solid waste disposal is a growing problem, particularly in developing countries due to the compounding effect it has on the environment of surrounding communities. The study assesses the health impacts of landfills on members of the surrounding community and recognizes possible hazards.

Megacities produce vast quantities of solid waste and landfills are the major headache for every municipal corporation around the world. Unbearable smells and the mixture of air pollutants are major components of landfill emission. Such air pollutants are CO, NOx, SO₂, CO₂, Particulate Matter, Hydrocarbons and VOCs.

Why choose AirSENCE?

AirSENCE, a caaqMMS provides the most effective solution for fence-line monitoring of landfill sites. All the relevant gas and particulate sensors are installed in a small, lightweight enclosure making AirSENCE the best tool to monitor landfill air emissions.

In addition, AirSENCE is easy to install, can be operated autonomously, requires low maintenance, and provides real-time data that can be accessible anywhere. AirSENCE ensures authorities and regulators can effectively manage air pollutants emitted in hazardous sites like landfills.
