TLDR
In this paper, the composition and variation in three different biogas production plants were studied to provide information pertaining to its potential use as biofuel, and the results showed that the biogases in the different production plants varied, especially in trace compound content.

Integrated design of multi-stage membrane separation for landfill gas with uncertain feed

TL;DR: In this article, three different strategies are proposed for landfill gas purification through the multi-stage membrane separation, including a sequential reference-structure-based strategy (SeqRS), a sequential superstructurebased strategy, and a simultaneous superstructure based strategy (SimSS).

Design of biogas upgrading processes based on ionic liquids

TL;DR: In this paper, an IL-based proposal for biogas upgrading was found able to efficiently retain CO2 but also other main impurities (H2S, H2O, siloxanes) producing biomethane with quality standards.

Sampling and analytical procedures for the determination of VOCs released into air from natural and anthropogenic sources: A comparison between SPME (Solid Phase Micro Extraction) and ST (Solid Trap) methods

TL;DR: In this paper, two sampling and analytical methods for VOC determination in fumarolic exhalations related to hydrothermal-magmatic reservoirs in volcanic and geothermal areas and biogas released from waste landfills were compared: (a) Solid Traps (STs), consisting of three phase (Carboxen B, Carboxen C and Carbosieve S111) absorbent stainless steel tubes and (b) Solid Phase Micro Extraction (SPME) fibers, composed of DiVinylBenzene (DVB), carboxen and PolyDim

Quality Evaluation of Biogas and Selected Methods of its Analysis

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented technological and ecological aspects of biogas quality evaluation and introduced an overview of the limits of its selected parameters, including hydrogen sulfide, ammonia, condensation, dust, oils, siloxanes, and aggregated content of sulfur, chlorine and fluorine.

Conversion of Methane and Carbon Dioxide in a DBD Reactor: Influence of Oxygen

TL;DR: In this paper, a continuous plug flow reactor supported by a dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) is used to study the conversion of methane, carbon dioxide, and oxygen at different compositions.

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.
