“…A total of 81 measuring points were identified. These 81 points were believed to be sufficient for modeling the spatial distribution of CH 4 and CO 2 [14]. A square flux chamber was constructed to measure the CH 4 and CO 2 emissions from the landfill surface (Fig.…”

“…Some comprehensive field measurements have revealed seasonal variations in LFG emissions at multiple landfills in subarctic and humid regions, whereas there is very few studies have been conducted to investigate seasonal variations of CH 4 and CO 2 emissions from landfills in tropical regions. Maurice and Lagerkvist [5] investigated seasonal variations of CH 4 [10] investigated CH 4 emissions in semi-arid climates using the static flux chamber method and reported higher CH 4 emissions in the winter relative to the summer season. Zhang et al [7] found that CH 4 emissions from a landfill located at eastern China (humid subtropical climate) were higher in the winter than in the summer season.…”

Abstract-Landfill gas (LFG) emissions were measured in a landfill in tropical conditions in Malaysia to investigate seasonal variations in methane (CH 4 ) and carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) emissions. The study results showed that CH 4 and CO 2 emissions were ranged from 0 to 1,602 g m -2 d -1 and 5 to 2,753 g m -2 d -1 during wet and dry seasons, respectively, and higher CH 4 and CO 2 emissions were found during the wet season than in the dry season. It is concluded that special consideration must be given to landfill cover soil in order to enhance CH 4 oxidation and, thereby, reduce CH 4 emissions.

Anaerobic treatment of liquidized food waste (LFW) was carried out in an upflow anaerobic sludge blanket reactor (UASBR) by stepwise increase in organic loading rate (OLR) and temperature. The chemical oxygen demand (COD), total organic carbon (TOC), biogas and methane production were measured at hydraulic retention time (HRT) of 10 to 4d, and start up strategy of the reactor was monitored for 10 weeks. Thermophilic condition was achieved by increasing the temperature from 30 to 558C, and pH was maintained at 7 6 0.5 throughout the experiment. Maximum COD removal efficiency was 93.67% (r 5 0.84) at an OLR of 12.5 g-COD/LÁd and 4d HRT. Maximum TOC removal efficiency was 79.14% (r 5 20.94) at an influent TOC concentration of 3.59 g/L. Biogas and methane yield were recorded to a maximum of 1.364 L/g-COD removed Ád (r 5 0.81), 0.912 L/g-COD removed Ád (r 5 0.83), and average methane content of biogas was 63%. The reactor was fully acclimatized at 558C and achieved stability with high removal efficiency and biogas production. An OLR of 12.5 g-COD/LÁd and HRT of 4 days were suitable for the treatment of LFW in UASBR. The treatment process can also be extendable for more than 10 weeks without any measurable problem.

A methodology for estimating the methane emissions from waste landfi lls in Hanoi, Vietnam, as part of a case study on Asian cities, was derived based on a survey of documents and statistics related to waste management, interviews with persons in charge, and fi eld investigations at landfi ll sites. The waste management system in Hanoi was analyzed to evaluate the methane emissions from waste landfi ll sites. The quantity of waste deposited into the landfi ll was evaluated from an investigation of the waste stream. The composition of municipal waste was surveyed in several districts in the Hanoi city area, and the quantities of degradable organic waste that had been deposited into landfi ll for the past 15 years were estimated. Field surveys on methane emissions from landfi lls of different ages (0.5, 2, and 8 years) were conducted and their methane emissions were estimated to be 120, 22.5, and 4.38 ml/min/m 2 , respectively. The fi rst-order reaction rate of methane generation was obtained as 0.51/year. Methane emissions from waste landfi lls were calculated by a fi rst-order decay model using this emission factor and the amount of landfi lled degradable waste. The estimates of methane emissions using the model accorded well with the estimates of the fi eld survey. These results revealed that methane emissions from waste landfi lls estimated by regional-specifi c and precise information on the waste stream are essential for accurately determining the behavior of methane emissions from waste landfi lls in the past, present, and future.Key words Greenhouse effect gas · Methane · Waste landfi ll · Clean development mechanism · Vietnam J Mater Cycles Waste Manag (2008) 10:165-172
