An apparatus for autonomous landfill gas monitoring and automation comprising a non-invasive assembly for wellhead optimization. A conformable valve adjuster is configured to engage a manual valve handle via mechanical interference to convert data-driven or user-initiated commands into physical valve modulations without impeding routine manual operation. The apparatus comprises modular components, including power and valve adjuster assemblies. The system further comprises a pneumatic conditioning assembly to protect internal components and condition gas samples. A communication interface enables two-way transmission of data and commands via a local mesh network and gateway node to a remote application. The apparatus utilizes control loop feedback and multivariate datasets to enable automated wellfield balancing and optimized gas extraction rates.
A gas wellhead monitoring and control device, comprising:
A method for controlling extraction of landfill gas from a landfill using a landfill gas control device, wherein the device comprises a controller in operable communication with at least one sensor fluidly engaged with landfill gas output from a well and a valve adjuster, the valve adjuster configured to engage a handle of a wellhead valve, the method comprising:
