Current Research Projects and Interests
- Emissions and Oxidation of Speciated Non-Methane Organic Compounds
in Landfill Cover Soils (funded by CReeD: Centre
de Recherches pour l'Environnement, l'Energie, et le Déchet,
Limay, France; research group of Veolia Environnement. www.veoliaenvironnement.com/en/group/research/creed).
Cooperative project with Florida State University and Danish Technical
University. (www.veoliaenvironnement.com/en/group/research/creed)
 
Lavergne Bioreactor, France—Landfill methane emissions, oxidation,
mass balance
- Bio-Tarp: Reducing Landfill Methane Emissions with Bioactive Alternative
Daily Cover (funded by U.S. Dept. of Energy). Cooperative project
with Dr. Helene Hilger, University of North Carolina-Charlotte (www.coe.uncc.edu/~hhilger)
and Ten Cate Nicolon, Georgia.
- Bioreactive Cover System: Inexpensive Approaches for Mitigating
Landfill Methane Emissions (funded by National Science Foundation
and Florida Center for Solid and Hazardous Waste Management). Cooperative
project with Dr. Jeffrey Chanton, Florida State University (www.ocean.fsu.edu/faculty/chanton/chanton.html)
and Florida A & M University.
- Field Measurement of Methane Emissions and Methane Oxidation at
the Lavergne Bioreactor Landfill. (funded by CReeD/Veolia Environnement,
France. Cooperative project with Florida State University.
Field measurement of LFG trace component emissions
- Field Measurement of Methane Mass Balance in Landfill Cells with
Different Design and Operational Strategies (funded by CReeD/Veolia
Environnement, France). Project METAN. Cooperative project with multiple
French and U.S. researchers.
- Soil gas studies in support of phytoremediation projects (funded
by U.S. DOE through Argonne National Laboratory). Cooperative projects
with Dr. Cristina Negri, Energy Systems Division, Argonne National
Laboratory.
 
Working with international students
- Innovative strategies for estimating global methane emissions from
landfills. Cooperative project funded by NASA (1998-2000); updating
for IPCC AR4 through U.S. EPA.
 
Methane transport and oxidation in ET covers, Australia
- Dynamic Water Balance and Geotechnical Stability of Bioreactor
Landfills (funded by CReeD/Veolia Environnement, France). Cooperative
project with Dr. Krishna Reddy, University of Illinois Chicago (www.uic.edu/depts/cme/people/faculty/kreddy.html),
Dr. Philip Carpenter (Northern Illinois University, (jove.geol.niu.edu/faculty/carpenter/pjc.html)
and ONYX U.S.
