Trace organic compounds in landfill gas at seven U.K. waste disposal sites

TL;DR: The trace volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in landfill gas were examined at seven U.K. waste disposal facilities and over 140 compounds were identified, of which more than 90 were common to all seven sites.
Journal ArticleDOI

Determination of Siloxanes and VOC in Landfill Gas and Sewage Gas by Canister Sampling and GC-MS/AES Analysis

TL;DR: In this paper, a new technique for sampling, identification, and quantification of siloxanes and volatile organic carbon (VOC) in landfill gas and sewage gas is presented, after sample collection using evacuated stainless steel canisters biogas was analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry/atomic emission spectroscopy.

Characterization of Landfill Gas Composition at the Fresh Kills Municipal Solid-Waste Landfill

TL;DR: In this article, the average total nonmethane organic compound (NMOC) value for the Fresh Kills landfill was 438 ppmv (as hexane) versus the regulatory default value of 4000 ppmv( as hexane). Over 70 individual volatile organic compounds (VOCs) were detected and quantified in the landfill gas samples.

Attenuation of methane and volatile organic compounds in landfill soil covers

TL;DR: Mass balance calculations using the maximal oxidation rates obtained demonstrated that landfill soil covers have a significant potential for not only methane oxidation but also cometabolic degradation of selected volatile organics, thereby reducing emissions to the atmosphere.
