“…So far, waste management has only focused on government officials who process it in the order from the source of waste to the TPS and ends at final processing site [28]. Even if the final processing site still uses an open dumping system, it is certain that it will cause soil, water and air pollution [29]. final processing site has its own procedures where the location is an isolated place and meets standards in the form of http://ijstm.inarah.co.id 159…”

Methane gas (CH4) is one of the main Greenhouse Gases (GHG), which contributes 14.5% to global warming. The methane gas potential that can be created from final processing site landfills in 45 big cities in Indonesia in 2010 reached 11,390 tons of CH4/year or the equivalent of 239,199 tons of CO2/year. The decomposition process that occurs in the waste pile will produce methane emissions and be released into the atmosphere by 50-60%. Gunung Kupang final processing site is a final processing site that serves the Banjarbaru City area in addition to the Banjarbakula Regional final processing site, with waste coming in every day which continues to increase and has the potential to generate emissions. The purpose of this research is to analyze the characteristics in the form of waste generation and composition at the Gunung Kupang final processing site and to analyze the estimation of methane gas from the Gunung Kupang final processing site landfill activities using IPCC methods. The methods used in this study are the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). Total greenhouse gas emissions produced in the IPCC method from 2014-2020 were 1.49 Gg/year. In 2021-2024, it is estimated that methane produced using the IPCC method is 0.528 Gg/year

“…Estima-se que o potencial de redução global no setor de aterros sanitários para resíduos sólidos seja de aproximadamente 61% das emissões de base até 2030, dos quais 12% podem ser atingidos a custos relativamente baixos ou nulos (CARDOSO; CARDOSO, 2016). educação ambiental 441 ▪ Já para o caso de países em desenvolvimento como o Brasil, a desativação de lixões, usando cada vez mais aterros sanitários, com instalação de tecnologia que transforma o metano em CO2 (flare, produção de energia) ou ainda envasamento/engarrafamento do metano produzido (via biogás) em aterro sanitário para fins de uso como GNV (CAICEDO-CONCHA et al, 2019;LIMA;BERSTEIN;VALLE, 2014) ▪ Melhorar os padrões sanitários nos países em desenvolvimento e implementar padrões ocidentais para o saneamento de águas residuais.

O efeito estufa natural é um dos fatores mais importantes para manter a Terra quente, pois impede que parte do calor do planeta escape para o espaço. Contudo, o excesso de gases causa o aquecimento global e a Educação Ambiental pode reverter este cenário através da sensibilização, possibilitando a transformação de comportamento e redução dos impactos ambientais. Este trabalho, a partir de revisão bibliográfica, visa contribuir com a articulação e inserção da temática no ensino de ciências, sobretudo nos níveis médio e fundamental. Para isso, é feita uma abordagem da perspectiva da química ambiental discutindo conceitos acerca do metano, sua química, suas fontes e função como gás de efeito estufa, assim como, o efeito sobre a saúde humana.

“…Table 3 shows the physical composition of the MSW, which corresponds to the characteristics of fresh waste disposed of at the regional landfill described above; it has a moisture content of 51.9% and total solids content of 48.1%. An elemental composition analysis (32.8 %C, 5.5 %H, 5.8 %N, 0.1 %S) of a representative sample from the regional landfill was determined using a FlashEA 1112 Elemental Analyser (Thermo Finnigan, Italy) according to procedures described by (Caicedo-Concha et al, 2019). An oxygen content of 22.7 % was estimated from a review of ultimate analyses reported in selected studies for MSW with similar composition ((Mendes et al Anders, 2014).…”

An evaluation of final disposal alternatives for municipal solid waste through life cycle assessment: A case of study in Colombia

Landfilling is still the most common technology used in developing countries for the final disposal of municipal solid waste (MSW), albeit the negative impacts on the environment such as those caused by the release of greenhouse gases (GHG) that contribute to global warming (GW). The Colombian government set a target of 20% reduction in GHG emissions by year 2030, for which the solid waste management sector has an important role to play. Also, the achievement of the targets of sustainable development goals (SDG) is playing a key role for the government agenda and will do so for the next years. In this context, there is an important room for improvement of the management alternatives in currently operative landfills in the country, especially in terms of measures to reduce fugitive air emissions and leachates. This paper evaluates, using life cycle assessment (LCA) methods, the environmental impacts associated with a landfill in Colombia under four different scenarios: open dumps (zero) and conventional landfill under three landfill gas (LFG) management alternatives: venting (a), flaring (b), and energy recovery (c). The impact categories as well as the life cycle impact assessment
