Failure and Concern of LFG Recovery Failure Anaerobic digestion of organics and limitation of water in waste layer leads prolonged emission of polluted leachate and LFG over 30 years. Increasing of cost for post closure operation of landfill leads failure of waste management company. Western countries are now changing their policy from LFG recovery to avoidance of land disposal of organics (Europe) or aerobication of landfill (North America). For LFG recovery CDM projects, issuance of CER is about 30 % of expected on a median (for all project, that is 80 %). This leads a danger of recovery of their initial investment according to market condition of the carbon credit. Current IPCC waste model don t have enough accuracy to estimate GHG emissions from individual landfill site. Concern LFG and Leachate Load At regions with high precipitation, it is impossible completely to avoid the penetration of precipitation to the waste layer. LFG hardly extract from the submerged waste layer. Addition of water to the dried waste layer leads re activation of the biological process. LFG can utilize during a limited initial period in the all period of landfill operation. This leads uncontrolled emission i of polluted leachate and GHG after the project period. 20120213 CDM Project Post Closure Period 4
Should waste management do for energy production (or money)? greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction? environmental protection? improvement of public health? That should be for ALL!! =Co benefit Approach 20120213 5
Semi Aerobic Landfill Promise technology for GHG reduction and Environmental Protection Cover Soil Regulating Rain Fall Connection Gas Vent Exchange of LFG and Air by Convection A technology for improving leachate quality before discharge and saving cost for treatment in Japan where rain fall is high This technology was developed by Fukuoka City and Fukuoka Univ. in 1970 s and became a standard structure of Japanese Landfill. This technology has transferred to several developing countries (Southeast Asia, South America, Africa) by JICA/ODA Enhancement of aerobic digestion of organics leads to decreasing of methane production. Adopted in 2006 IPCC Guideline Bottom Liner Keep Void in Drainage by Enhancement of Discharge Drainage Treatment Facility 20120213 6
