Introduction

Landfill methane is produced when organicmaterials are decomposed by bacteria underanaerobic conditions

Methane production varies greatly from landfillto landfill depending on site-specificcharacteristics.Problem regarding methane including airpollution and global warming.Methane collection is important to protectenvironment and it its also excellent energyalternative.

Problem Statement

Methane gases are responsible for globalwarming in phenomena.Methane is produced by biological activity inthe landfill and the emission has increasedwith the large number of waste dumped in thelandfill.

Methane gases should be collected properlyand it has potential economic values as energysource.

O bjectives

Determined the production of methane gasesat Sg. Sedu, Banting landfill.

To analyze the economic value of the methanegas collected based on electricity ratecalculation.

Scope of Study

landfill area at Sg. Sedu, banting, Selangor.

Measurement of methane concentration willbe done for three(3) time in the duration of one(1) month.

Significant of Study

amount of methane gas produced at landfillcan be determined.

stabilized or even declining levels of globalatmospheric concentrations of methane.

promote energy security and improve theenvironment condition

Literature ReviewAUTHOR YEAR FINDINGS

2002 Solid waste can be defined as the useless and unwantedproducts in the solid state derived from the activities of and discarded by society.

Protection

1999 Methane is a colourless, odourless, tasteless, flammablegas that burns with a pale, faintly luminous flame.

2010 Greenhouse gases naturally blanket the Earth and keep itabout 33 degrees Celsius warmer than it would be withoutthese gases in the atmosphere. This is called theGreenhouse Effect.

HarlanBangston

2010 Methane gas will be produced by anaerobic decompositionif waste organic matter is simply kept in a closed spacewithout oxygen present.
