The Solution Directed Biogas
• Directed Biogas
• 15 year RNG purchase agreement
• Big Run Landfill in Kentucky
Biagas Transformation L'Oreal USA Operations has signed a 15-year purchase agreement for renewable natural gas (RNG) from a Kentucky landfill . RNG or LOREAL biomethane, is derived from many abundant renewable sources, including decomposing organic waste in landfi ll s, wastewater treatment, and ag riculture. This scalable, financially viable solution will propel L'Oreal USA Operations, including 21 manufacturing and distribution facilitiesOPERATIONS across 12 states, to be carbon neutral by 2019.
The collected landfill gas is Landfi ll gas, predominantly consisting of
then processed to remove methane - a greenhouse gas 25 times more
impurities to produce pipeline damaging to the climate than CO2 - is
quality renewable natural gas collected from the Big Run Landfill in
(RNG).Ashland, Kentucky.
The RNG is injected from the Big Run Landfill processing plant into
portfolio and is a key element of the reducing carbon
