OPTIMISATION OF GAS COLLECTION SYSTEMS -LANDFILLS, HAZARDOUS WASTE AND ABANDONED WASTE DISPOSAL SITES

摘要

Optimisation of gas collection systems appears useful in the event that the amount and quality of landfill gas decreases continuously and/or larger methane emissions over the landfill surface are ascertained. This applies in particular to landfills where a CHP plant is operated for the power generation and the feeding-in. To prevent reduced operation in the first instance or subsequent dismantling, as effective a utilisation as possible of the available landfill gas potential should be ensured. To achieve this, the operators have different possibilities. The paper presents in particular the optimisation of a gas collection system and the systematic approach.
