Phase 3 is a methanogenesis where anaerobic bacteria is growing and producing lots of methane. Phase 4 is the early maturation stage where gas production remains steady. Composition of landfill gas produced is 40% to 60% methane and 40% to 60% carbon dioxide (ATSDR, 2001). These gases will be continuously produced for 20 years and will cease when landfill is at maturation phase. The total amount of LFG generated in the current year (LFGt) is estimated using: Figure 2 Landfill gas production phases Source: (USEPA, 1997) LFG is then collected through passive or active system. Passive system involves wells similar to groundwater well where gas is drawn to the well because of different pressure between landfill and the atmosphere. Active system incorporated a vacuum on the well to create greater potential in the wells and extract gas from landfill (Figure 3). The extracted gas is then purified by gas scrubber to remove carbon dioxide, to produce LFG. Source: (AGO, 1997) The value of c is zero if the landfill is still accepting waste. The value of e is based on the Napierian or natural logarithm (approximately 2.718). Lo is estimated from waste composition and degradable organic content which values are provided in Table 1. According to Vogt, Peyser, and Peterson (1996), total LFG yield per kilogram MSW is 0.17 m3/kg (AGO, 1997).

For instance, for 1 MW gas generator needs around 700 m3 of 50% methane per hour (REM and RMIT, 1999) and the amount of CO2 conserved from the atmosphere: 700m3 /unitof 50%CH4 ×100MW =70,000m3 of 50%CH4 70,000m3 of 50%CH4 ×0.672=47,040kgof CH4 47,040kgof CH4 ×21=987,840kgof CO2 =988tonof CO2 Thus 100 MW landfill gas power plants can save greenhouse gases of approximately 988 ton of CO2 equivalent emission. 10 Figure 3 Active gas collection system in landfill Source: (ATSDR) LFGt=L ⋅R(e−kc −e−kt) o Where: Label Unit Lo m3/kg R kg/yr t number of years c number of years k 1/years Factor Total LFG yield per kg of municipal solid waste (MSW) Filling rate Time since landfill opened Time since landfill closure Annual rate of LFG generation

Infinity Supercritical CO2 10 Liter Extractor Design and Worldwide Rights: The Infinity Supercritical 10L CO2 extractor is for botanical oil extraction, which is rich in terpenes and can produce shelf ready full spectrum oil. With over 5 years of development, this industry leader mature extractor machine has been sold since 2015 and is part of many profitable businesses. The process can also be used for electrowinning, e-waste recycling, and lithium battery recycling, gold mining electronic wastes, precious metals. CO2 can also be used in a reverse fuel cell with nafion to make a gas-to-liquids fuel, such as methanol, ethanol and butanol or ethylene. Supercritical CO2 has also been used for treating nafion to make it more effective catalyst. This NFT is for the purchase of worldwide rights which includes the design. More Info
