The gases produced by landfills are greenhouse gases that threaten the environment. Methane is a major problem due to its high global warming potential; it is 25 times greater than carbon dioxide, and it has a huge impact on climate change and the destruction of the ozone layer (Ayodele et...
at which time Relationship recording period contained in the landfill (or underground body) position is measured at at least one position selected pressure, then using the atmospheric pressure and on the time period measured pressure estimate this part of landfills or underground production LFG producti...
Monitoring Landfill Gas in Residential Areas Old, buried domestic waste landfills continue to produce methane gases even after decades of not being in active use. This has an adverse effect on the environment as well as impacting the quality of life of residents in nearby residential areas. Action...
Due to the risk presented by landfill gas there is a clear need to monitor gas produced by landfills. In addition to the risk of fire and explosion, landfill gas migration in the subsurface and result in contact of landfill gas with groundwater. This can result in contamination of ground...

The generation of leachate and gas from landfills is a well documented phenomenon which impacts landfill design and operation. Leachate and gas production are both influenced by the contents of the landfill, the local climate, and the manner in which the facility is operated. Gas composition and ...
Landfills go through various stages: open, open with a cover that still lets in some oxygen, and closed with an impermeable seal. By the time a landfill is sealed, it has released most of the methane it is going to.When a landfill is open to receiving more trash, it doesn’t have a...
In most landfills, the refuse deposit usually has a high content of organic matter consisting of a mixture of household, industrial and garden waste. Immediately after the refuse has been placed in the landfill, aerobic decomposition of the organic waste begins. Once the oxygen has been exhausted...

landfills is estimated to equal about 5% of domestic natural gas consumption, or 1% of domestic total energy needs. The amount of landfill gas produced by a municipal landfill is significant; 3 to 5 million standard cubic feet per day (SCF/day) is typical for landfills found in or near ...
