Anaerobic methane oxidation in a landfill-leachate plume.
The alluvial aquifer adjacent to Norman Landfill, OK, provides an excellent natural laboratory for the study of anaerobic processes impacting landfill-leachate contaminated aquifers. We collected groundwaters from a transect of seven multilevel wells ranging in depth from 1.3 to 11 m that were oriented parallel to the flow path. The center of the leachate plume was characterized by (1) high alk...
متن کاملRapid methane oxidation in a landfill cover soil.
Methane oxidation rates observed in a topsoil covering a retired landfill are the highest reported (45 g m day) for any environment. This microbial community had the capacity to rapidly oxidize CH(4) at concentrations ranging from <1 ppm (microliters per liter) (first-order rate constant [k] = -0.54 h) to >10 ppm (k = -2.37 h). The physiological characteristics of a methanotroph isolated from t...
متن کاملObservations on the methane oxidation capacity of landfill soils.
The objective of this study was to determine the role of CH(4) loading to a landfill cover in the control of CH(4) oxidation rate (gCH(4)m(-2)d(-1)) and CH(4) oxidation efficiency (% CH(4) oxidation) in a field setting. Specifically, we wanted to assess how much CH(4) a cover soil could handle. To achieve this objective we conducted synoptic measurements of landfill CH(4) emission and CH(4) oxi...
متن کاملLimits and dynamics of methane oxidation in landfill cover soils.
In order to understand the limits and dynamics of methane (CH(4)) oxidation in landfill cover soils, we investigated CH(4) oxidation in daily, intermediate, and final cover soils from two California landfills as a function of temperature, soil moisture and CO(2) concentration. The results indicate a significant difference between the observed soil CH(4) oxidation at field sampled conditions com...
متن کاملSimulation model for gas diffusion and methane oxidation in landfill cover soils.
Landfill cover soils oxidize a considerable fraction of the methane produced by landfilled waste. Despite many efforts this oxidation is still poorly quantified. In order to reduce the uncertainties associated with methane oxidation in landfill cover soils, a simulation model was developed that incorporates Stefan-Maxwell diffusion, methane oxidation, and methanotrophic growth. The growth model...
