LEACHATE AND GAS SYSTEMS
M and M Pipeworks are experts in setting up leachate and gas systems on landfill sites. We have the knowledge and expertise to collect landfill gas by either a passive or an active collection system. Our team can safely and efficiently monitor, collect and process landfill gas across the UK.
Our complete gas system services take your project through the entire planning, design and construction process to make sure everything runs as smoothly as possible. The number of gas collection wells placed throughout the landfill depends on landfill-specific characteristics, such as waste volume, density, depth, and area.

OUR GAS COLLECTION SERVICES
Passive Gas Collection
Passive gas collection systems use existing variations in landfill pressure and gas concentrations to vent landfill gas into the atmosphere or a control system. Passive collection systems can be installed during active operation of a landfill or after closure. Passive systems are made up of a series of collection wells installed vertically throughout the landfill to depths ranging from 50% to 90% of the waste thickness. A passive collection system may also include horizontal wells located below the ground surface to serve as conduits for gas movement within the landfill.

Active Gas Collection
Active Gas collection systems are considered the most effective means of landfill gas collection. Active gas collection systems include vertical and horizontal gas collection wells containing valves to regulate gas flow and to serve as a sampling port. Sampling allows the system operator to measure gas generation, composition, and pressure. Active gas collection systems include gas boosters or pumps to move gas out of the landfill and piping that connects the collection wells to the flare.
