摘要：

Landfills are producing a large amount of biogas, due to anaerobic fermentation. Biogas consists mainly of methane (up to 60 vol%) and carbon dioxide. Safety reasons (fire and bad odors) require a gas collection system in the landfill in order to burn the biogas. Only a few landfills are using the energy of the collected biogas to run generators or water heating plants. By means of PRISM separators, it will now be possible to recover the methane by separating the carbon dioxide. The product is a high methane gas which can be used as natural gas. Due to the newly developed gas separation technology, a landfill owner is able to sell the methane-rich gas to gas distributors.
