NC DAQ Issues Air Quality Permit to Sapphire RNG Facility at Sampson County Landfill
After thoroughly reviewing all public comments submitted during the public hearing and notice period, the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality’s Division of Air Quality (DAQ) is issuing a Title V air quality permit to Sapphire Renewable Natural Gas.
Sapphire Renewable Natural Gas plans to accept and process landfill gas onsite at Sampson County Disposal, in Roseboro, North Carolina. Currently, the landfill burns all its gas using flares, producing air pollution. Air emissions at Sapphire Renewable Natural Gas will be controlled by a waste gas thermal oxidizer, a candlestick flare and a sulfur treatment system with two activated carbon vessels.
