Content Summary | The current study focus on the determination of landfill air emissions in Greece
using the LandGEM model for the period 1960-2007. The emission estimations from the
LandGEM model were further compared with the IPCC methodology for the evaluation of
landfill emissions. In contrast to the IPCC method in which the methane emission potential is
calculated based on the amount of waste being disposed each year, the LandGEM model
determines the methane emission based on the amount of remaining organic waste. Furthermore,
the LandGEM model assumes a time lag period of one year before the prevalence of anaerobic
conditions and the beginning of biogas production. The current study concluded that the
LandGEM model is an efficient modelling platform for the calculations of greenhouse gas
emissions from landfills and can be used in conjunction with other models, such as the IPCC
model, to derive realistic emission data | en |
