Implementation of a Degassing System at the MSW Landfill

Aitolo-Akarnania prefecture, western Greece, is an area with strong earthquakes and large active fault systems. The most, the second half of 20th century was characterized for world community by aggravation environmental problem. Anthropogenic pollution environment growth industrial agricultural production, cities, size population, volume their consumption clearly indicates that on brink abyss. destruction forests, water bodies, degradation soil, flora fauna, emergence new diseases shows if urgent drastic measures are not taken to save environment, life future generations problematic. In Russia, as in other countries world, amount solid household waste has been sharply increasing lately. Therefore, processing disposal becoming increasingly problem requires adoption complex solutions. At same time, overcrowded smoking landfills, well formed unauthorized landfills main sources pollution. Landfills municipal only cause epidemiological hazard, but due anaerobic decomposition organic waste, causing formation explosive biogas, become a powerful source biological Biogas generated at MSW process toxic effect living organisms, contributes outbreak fires, unpleasant odors. This must be solved introducing degassing system already stage operation. proposed landfill aimed reducing negative impact biogas environment. Doi: 10.28991/cej-2021-03091706 Full Text: PDF
