Portable Methane Analyzer (PMA)

Fast, Accurate Measurements of Methane in a Portable Form Factor.

Landfill Methane Emissions Are Slowly Choking Our Planet.

Municipal landfills are one of the largest sources of methane (CH₄) in the US.
Responsible for an estimated 14.3 % of total CH₄ emissions due to municipal solid waste decomposition (food scraps, yard trimmings, paper material).
Landfills emitted a total of 3.7 M metric tons of CH₄ in 2021, equivalent to about 295 million metric tons of Greenhouse Gasses/GHG (CO₂ equivalent, or CO₂e tons), according to EPA estimates.
This is as much GHG pollution as from 66 million gas-powered passenger vehicles on the road for a year (about a 1/4 of all American cars, SUVs, vans, and pickup trucks)
This is also as much GHG pollution as from 79 coal-fired power plants.

You Can't Manage What You Don't Measure.

Measuring methane emissions is the crucial first step to reducing, potentially eliminating those emission sources, and verifying that corrective actions are effectively working.
