Exea Associates Ltd.
Honorary Research Fellow at the Birmingham
University
• Chartered Waste Manager
• 29 years of experience in Waste management, contaminated land
assessment, remediation and regulation, with detailed knowledge of in -
situ chemical treatment technologies.
• Extensive knowledge of air pollution abatement technologies and
atmospheric pollution chemistry.
• Currently working as Director in Exea Associates Ltd. as an international
consultant where he provides services to the landfill industry, financiers
and government sectors in landfill gas and leachate technical review,
due diligence and system design. He strives to improve gas and leachate
management and facilitate better environmental controls. Experience
as an expert witness, as well as with training and landfill chemistry.
Qualified to carry out health and safety assessments, provide advice and
prepare documentation.
• Worked in landfill gas assessment and remedial treatment works in 1988
following the Loscoe incident and the former HMIP instruction to all
Local Authorities to assess landfills. Investigated 46 landfill sites within
the Borough of Wolverhampton.
• Keiron has been active in landfill gas and leachate assessment work
primarily for the Strategic Permitting Group of the Environmental
Agency, for the last 10 years which he spent working as a member of the
Agency‘s Landfill Gas Group. He has recently been working on landfill
gas energy projects in Bangladesh, Palestine, Australia and Europe.
• He is a member of the ACUMEN Landfill Monitoring Technical Advisory
Group (LMTAG)
• A graduate of IOSH, he currently uses risk identification risk assessment
and risk reduction skills on operational landfill sites.
• Status as a Qualified Person (QP) for re-use of soils - CLaire. He also acts
as an expert in re-use of soils where asbestos is an issue.
• Winner of the Chartered Institute of Waste Management Waste
Regulation award for an assessment of paper on contaminated land.

QUALITy
GUARANTEE
Delegates will understand what landfill gas and leachate is and
how containment engineering integrates into their control.
The training will provide a robust understanding of how to design
an engineered landfill from basic principles including geology,
mineral liners, artificial liners, etc.
The importance of the contents required in Construction Quality
Assurance Plans and Construction Quality Assurance will be
explained.
Delegates will be able to design a basic landfill gas collection
system using simple calculations and assumptions. This will take
into consideration gas generation estimate, sizing of pipe work
and planning combustion technology.
This will be able to design a basic leachate management control
system integrated with gas collection. It will include engineering
control, collection systems and treatment options.
Delegates will be able to develop simple risk assessments for a
proposed or operational site based on engineering design, landfill
location, landfill gas production and leachate production.
To give delegates a chance to network, exercise will be carried out
in small groups.

2. International MasterClass
Day 1 |November 4
9:00 Welcoming Note from Fleming Europe and
Opening Remarks
Session 1
9:15 Introduction to Integrated Landfill Engineering –
Protecting the Environment and the
Planet.
• Introduction into the concept of managing a landfill by
integrating our understanding of engineering, gas and leachate
controls
• Explaination of why is it good practice to manage in this
integrated fashion rather than considering each facet in
isolation and then expecting everything to mesh togethert this
how problems can occur
• Demonstration of how efficiencies can be made thereby
reducing costs will increasing revenues
• The carbon footprint of your site will be considered as
integrated management will reduce your carbon emissions
10:30 Morning Coffee & Networking
11:00 Landfill site location – selecting your site.
• Considerating of the impact of the landfill/land raise at the
planning stage
• We will discuss the impact on geology/hydrogeology and how
this may impact your selection
• Impact on drinking water abstraction
• Air pollution and impact on air quality and human receptors
12:30 Luncheon
Session 2
13:30 Geotechnical Solutions
• Geology as a vertical barrier
• Mineral Liners
• Artificial liners
• Protection Layers
• Capping – temporary and permanent
Exercise 1
Designing your landfill – selection and engineered barriers.
14:30 Afternoon Refreshments & Networking
15:00 Building the containment – CQAP and CQA
• Development of the Construction Quality Assurance Plan to be
incorporated into your design specification
• Testing requirements for geotechnical engineering
• What the Construction Quality Assurance should contain post
construction
16:00 Feedback Session & End of Day 1
