Research on the Methane Recovery from Landfill Gas by Applying Nitrogen Gas Separator Membrane

Characterization of Landfill Sites in Brazil for Landfill Gas Recovery

gas production potential in the landfill of tehran by landfill methane outreach program

results the modeling results showed that for the gas recovery starting in 2000 and 2015, the power generation would be 2,354 and 830 mw, respectively. in fact, the 15-year difference in gas extraction made a 200% difference. based on the results, from 2000 to 2100, 558 m3/hour of methane would be extracted, which would be equivalent to 2,354 mw energy. subsequently, the emission of 93,721,837 t...

The Short Term Influence of Atmospheric Pressure and Long Term Influence of Gas Recovery on Landfill Methane Emissions

Landfills are the largest sources of methane (CH4) emissions to the atmosphere in the United States. However, few measurements of whole landfill CH4 emissions have been reported. Here, we present the results of a multi-year study of whole landfill CH4 emissions using atmospheric tracer methods at the Nashua, New Hampshire Municipal landfill in the northeastern United States. Emissions were meas...

Landfill gas to Energy research in the Combustion and Catalysis

Landfill Gas to Energy This research investigates the utilization of landfill gas, an abundant waste product, by reforming it to syngas that can be converted to liquid fuels using Fischer Tropsch or to a H2 rich stream using water-gas shift. 65% of the 413 million tons of municipal solid waste (MSW) generated per year in the United States is landfilled, and 67% of the landfilled MSW is composed...

Integrating landfill bioreactors, partial nitritation and anammox process for methane recovery and nitrogen removal from leachate

A new process consisting of a landfill bioreactor, partial-nitritation (PN) and the anammox process has been developed for landfill leachate treatment. In this study, the landfill bioreactor exhibited excellent performance in methane-rich biogas recovery, with a specific biogas yield of 0.47 L gas g(-1) COD and methane percentages of 53-76%. PN was achieved in the aerobic reactor by high free a...
