Abstract

The study was conducted in El Hammam sanitary landfill at Alam Nayel to evaluate the resulted energy by measuring the emitted gas production, methane percent as one of the most important gas components, produced energy, energy consumption in landfill operation and finally leachat flow rate to optimize energy production from landfill. The landfill produces large amount of gas, which is burned without using it as a source of energy. The gas can be used to generate electricity or to be pumped in to pipeline gas to reduce energy costs and greenhouse gas emissions. The cumulative values of the produced gas, methane, thermal energy and electric energy were 1.93 million m3, 768,226 m3, 7665.2 M.W.h and  2682.82 M.W.h respectively after 1860 day. The landfill electric consumption was about 43 M.W.h/year, which is generated by 11 kW diesel engine, consumes about 17,520 liter/year and produce CO2 emission of about 43,800 kg/year.
