Methane leakage can erase the climate benefits of wastewater biogas recovery
Wastewater utilities use anaerobic digestion and biogas utilization to reduce energy costs and emissions, but methane leakage can undermine both the climate benefits and project economics of these systems, especially as power grids decarbonize. Safeguarding climate integrity will require performance-based methane policies that pair robust monitoring with enforceable leakage thresholds and targeted leak detection and repair
Methane leakage thresholds for net climate benefits of wastewater biogas recovery
Biogas recovery is crucial for decarbonizing water resource recovery facilities (WRRFs), offering renewable energy production alongside waste treatment. However, methane (CH4) leakage during digestion and biogas handling can largely compromise their climate benefits, yet this risk remains uncharacterized. Here we present a US national-scale assessment of CH4 leakage thresholds beyond which WRRF biogas systems lose net climate benefits. By compili…
