The Flexible Geomembrane Institute will be hosting a free webinar at 1 p.m. EST November 13.
A detailed quantification and comparative analysis of carbon emissions for the following three landfill final cover systems will be presented: (1) soil-only cover; (2) soil-geosynthetic cover; and (3) an engineered turf cover. Various sustainability aspects and potential environmental considerations for landfill cover systems, such as, land disturbance, borrow areas, water use, water quality, health and safety, and incremental closures will be discussed. Opportunities and operational activities that can be adopted to reduce greenhouse gas emissions with the use of cover systems will also be discussed.
The webinar will be presented by Ruti Joshi, P.E., and is eligible for 1.0 PDH.
