Landfill gas

Modern technology for degassing systems, landfill gas utilisation and flares

Every landfill is different — our modular systems ensure we find the best possible solution for your site.

Our approach

Safe treatment and efficient utilisation of landfill gas

Landfill gas is produced during the natural decomposition of organic waste. If released untreated, it contributes significantly to greenhouse gas emissions and may create serious health, safety and environmental risks.

At the same time, landfill gas often contains a substantial proportion of methane and therefore represents a valuable potential energy source. It can be collected and used for the generation of electricity or heat, or safely combusted when energy recovery is not technically or economically feasible.

Combining extensive expertise, decades of practical experience and modular system design, Hofstetter delivers reliable, efficient and site-specific solutions for the collection, treatment and safe combustion of landfill gas.

Our landfill products

Full range of degassing systems

Efficiency

Reliable landfill gas flare

The HOFGAS-Efficiency high-temperature gas flare provides safe and environmentally friendly high-temperature combustion of landfill gas. Exhaust gas emissions meet stringent requirements.

READY / READY C

Customized de-gassing system

The HOFGAS-Ready is a complete extraction and gas flaring system for the safe and economical degassing of landfills. Built in a ventilated container — theft-proof and weather-protected.

LPM

Customised gas treatment system

A modular degasification system at the highest level for large-scale landfills. Equipped with several blower groups, one or more high-temperature flares and additional customised control concepts.

CDM & carbon projects

Turn methane emissions into measurable results

Our high-temperature flares and modular gas treatment systems are compatible with CDM projects and international carbon-credit methodologies. Combustion temperature, residence time and gas analysis are logged continuously — providing the data your verifier needs.
