Workshop 1 – How Texoma’s Landfill Trash Gas Becomes Renewable Gas & Money for Its Citizens – Presented by Vitol BioMethane

Food going down the drain will decompose the same as in the landfill – releasing methane. Studies have shown that methane released at municipal wastewater treatment plants is more than what was previously thought. Studies are still being done and in some areas, they have started to capture the methane in the local landfill in order to use the gases.
