Innovation

Industry Problem

EXE aims to solve the problem of inefficient landfill biogas collection and the resulting methane emissions, which contribute to environmental pollution and energy loss. They also address the broader challenge of waste mismanagement by promoting circular economy practices.

R&D Focus

EXE’s Research and Development focuses on automating and optimizing landfill biogas recovery through advanced software models, real-time monitoring systems, and predictive tools. Operating in the niche segment of landfill gas management, their R&D combines engineering and digital innovation to maximize methane capture, reduce emissions, and enhance plant efficiency, contributing to cleaner energy production and circular economy goals.

Innovative Solution

EXE addresses the problem of inefficient and environmentally harmful landfill gas emissions by developing an automated biogas collection system. Their solution replaces manual regulation of biogas wells with smart control software that continuously monitors gas levels and automatically adjusts valves to optimize methane extraction. This system includes predictive models for biogas production, condensate formation, and landfill permeability, along with an interactive 3D dashboard to detect anomalies and guide maintenance. By increasing methane concentration and minimizing gas dispersion, EXE’s solution enhances energy recovery, reduces CO₂ emissions, and improves operational safety and efficiency.

Solution Effectiveness

EXE’s solution has proven to be highly effective, achieving up to a 70% increase in biogas collection from landfills by automating the regulation of extraction wells. This optimization has contributed to saving over 12,000 tons of CO₂ equivalent emissions per year, which is comparable to the annual absorption capacity of more than 70,000 trees. Additionally, their waste management efforts have helped recover over 8,000 tons of waste per year, significantly reducing landfill burden and supporting circular economy initiatives.
