United States Agency Landfill Gas Emissions Model …
www3.epa.govThe Landfill Gas Emissions Model (LandGEM) is an automated estimation tool with a Microsoft Excel interface that can be used to estimate emission rates for total landfill gas, methane, carbon dioxide, nonmethane organic compounds, and individual air pollutants from municipal solid waste landfills. This guide provides step-by-step guidance for using
Waste-to-Energy with CCS: A pathway to carbon-negative ...
www.globalccsinstitute.comMSW landfilling is also a major source of methane emissions in the form of landfill gas. Methane is 25 times as potent a greenhouse gas as CO 2. WtE plants avoid the formation of landfill gas by incinerating the organic methane-producing compounds in MSW and can, therefore, improve the net emissions savings available.
