Emission intensity of disposing of the specified material to landfill. These factors do not include any avoided emissions impact from any of the disposal methods. Landfilling emissions include transport to landfill/equipment use at landfill and fugitive landfill CH4 emissions. Landfill CH4 is based on typical landfill gas collection practices and average landfill moisture conditions. Retrieved from the EPA's GHG Emission Factors Hub (xlsx).
