CH4-oxidation for reducing gas emissions at in-situ aerated landfills

By applying In-Situ aeration at old municipal solid waste (MSW) landfills an efficient reduction
of the existing emission potential can be achieved. Because of low methane concentration and the resulting low calorific value it is not possible to treat the arising gas emissions in a common way. A feasible method is given by the microbial methane oxidation occurring in bio-filters. However, bio-filters in compact design have a limited
capacity. Top covers that enhance methane oxidation (biocovers) provide a simple and economic way to mitigate these greenhouse active gas emissions from In-Situ aerated MSW landfills.

The aim of the presented study was to prove the suitability and efficiency of two different materials applied as a filter component in such top covers for treating high gas fluxes with low methane concentration.
Laboratory tests show that in spite of high gas-flux rates and the resulting low contact time of the gas with the filter material the methane supply was completely removed in sewage sludge compost.

In the context of the European Climate Law (EU) 2021/1119), the Governance Regulation (EU) 2018/1999 and the Nature Restoration Regulation (EU) 2024/1991, the KAnG came into force on July 1, 2024.

Transformatives Klimarecht: Raum, Zeit, Gesellschaft

This article contends that climate law should be conceived as inherently transformative in a double sense. The law not only guides the necessary transformation of economy and society, but is itself undergoing transformation.
