Systems and methods for abating waste methane

A method of abating waste methane, comprising:

• controlling, with a processing circuit, operation of a catalytic combustor device;
• catalytically combusting, with the catalytic combustor device, waste-associated methane emissions, wherein the waste-associated methane emissions are generated by waste in a waste container, and wherein the catalytic combustion is based on a reaction of the methane emissions and a catalyst of the catalytic combustor device in the presence of heat;
• generating, with a combustion sensor, combustion data based on the catalytic combustion by the catalytic combustor device;
• determining an amount of methane abated by the catalytic combustor device, wherein the amount of methane abated is based on the combustion data;
• and
• reporting the amount of methane abated by the catalytic combustor device.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium having instructions stored thereon, that when executed by a computing device cause the computing device to perform operations for abating waste methane, the operations comprising:

• controlling operation of a catalytic combustor device;
• catalytically combusting, by the catalytic combustor device, waste-associated methane emissions, wherein the waste-associated methane emissions are generated by waste in a waste container, and wherein the catalytic combustion is based on a reaction of the methane emissions and a catalyst of the catalytic combustor device in the presence of heat;
• receiving, from a combustion sensor, combustion data based on the catalytic combustion by the catalytic combustor device;
• determining an amount of methane abated by the catalytic combustor device, wherein the amount of methane abated is based on the combustion data;
• and
• reporting the amount of methane abated by the catalytic combustor device.
