Technical Analysis of Landfill Gas Recovery Systems for the Production of High Btu Gas

摘要

In the past,landfill gas recovery projects consisted of the installation of gas gathering systems followed possibly by desulfurization and siloxane removal then by combustion in gas engines or turbine / generator sets for the production of electrical power or in boilers for the production of steam.These types of projects were very attractive since very little processing was required even though the gas had low to medium heating value(300-500 BTU/CF).
