Landfill Gas Mitigation Design

The design was complicated by the proposed large-spanning slabs and the uncertainty brought by the adjacent operating landfill. Early in the design process Core-EP identified the potential for unacceptable mitigation performance if the gas protection system was to rely purely on a passive system (wind and stack effects). Accordingly, Core-EP utilised our multi-disciplinary team to design an active landfill gas ventilation system to effectively dilute landfill gas beneath the development.
