PhasCon Technologies Co., Ltd.
Canada , with a JVC in China

Landfill pollution of Municipal Solid Waste is a big problem in most cities, especially in developing countries, the odor methane gas produced from landfill usually just vent into air . PhasCon develops and owns recycling utilization technology to collect landfill gas (LFG) from landfill and utilize LFG as power generation, as well as recycling treats the liquid leachate stream from the waste site. The leachate treatment system is a patent pending status in China. The LFG collection and utilization is company know how that is demonstrated at a site in Meizhou, Guangdong Province that currently collects 2000 m3/hr of gas and treats all the leachate from the site, 2 MW electrical power plant will be installed on the site to utilize the collected gas soon.

The application of LFG recovery and utilization is a typical Green House Gas (GHG) emission reduction project, which compliance with the Kyoto Protocol and could be developed under the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) frame , about half the revenue stream for the project will come from selling emission credits to international market.
