Modeling temperature response in bioenergy production: Novel solution to a common challenge of anaerobic digestion
TL;DR: In this article, a new way for temperature effect calculation that improves the simulation efficiency of bioconversion models was presented, which was implemented as a function in a dynamic mathematical model of anaerobic digestion, and was validated via the simulation of experimental data from two laboratory-scale continuous experiments, involving both short and long-term temperature changes.

Biogas from MSW landfill: Composition and determination of chlorine content with the AOX (adsorbable organically bound halogens) technique
TL;DR: In this paper, an exhaustive characterization of the biogas from some waste disposal facilities has been carried out, which includes the main components (methane, carbon dioxide, nitrogen and oxygen) as well as trace components such as hydrogen sulphide, ammonia and VOCs (volatile organic compounds) including siloxanes and halogenated compounds.

Evaluation of an electronic nose for the early detection of organic overload of anaerobic digesters.
TL;DR: The results confirmed that the e-nose technology appeared promising for online detection of process imbalances in the domain of anaerobic digestion.

Biogas upgrade to syngas through thermochemical recovery using exhaust gas reforming
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the effect of different O2/CH4 mole ratios and space velocities on the reformer product and showed that up to 95% efficiency can be achieved at optimum biogas and engine exhaust gas ratios for different engine conditions.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI
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.
