At Fenimore Landfill in Roxbury, N.J., where rotting debris is blamed for the release of dangerous amounts of hydrogen sulfide, real-time monitoring is providing a warning system for nearby residents should the releases spike, as well as valuable data to those evaluating solutions.
Emilcott Technology Inc. has developed a system of real-time air monitoring, called Greenlight, which integrates cloud computing to make the data publicly available online instantly. It is currently deployed at the Fenimore Landfill.
