Comparison of seven methods for measuring methane flux at a municipal solid waste landfill site

Abstract: Seven methods were compared to evaluate methane flux densities in an actual municipal solid waste landfill: two accumulation chambers, two micrometeorological techniques (eddy correlation and mass balance methods), two tracer gas methods and an airborne infrared thermography. The comparison took into account scientific, technical and economic aspects.

“…A recent review (Trégourès et al 1999) of seven methods of measuring methane flux from landfills was carried out in France, in which the use of static and dynamic chamber, tracer gas and micrometeorological methods were compared with regard to a number of scientific, technical and economic criteria.

“…For example, a flux chamber approach is widely used because it is easy to operate and costefficient (Reinhart et al, 1992;Abushammala et al, 2011). However, these measurements have surface footprints that are too small to account for whole-site LFG emissions because the material disposed of at landfills and the areal emission pattern can hardly be considered homogeneous (Börjesson et al, 2000;Scheutz et al, 2009;Trégourès et al, 1999). Over the past decade, a tracer dispersion method has been developed and proved to be more reliable and reproducible than other measurement approaches (Abichou et al, 2010Galle et al, 2001;Goldsmith et al, 2012;Scheutz et al, 2011b); resent studies have established the method as a reliable and accurate approach for quantifying whole-site fugitive landfill CH 4 emissions (Mønster et al, 2014(Mønster et al, , 2015.…”

“…To the best of our knowledge, there is only one study in the literature that tried to quantify landfill methane emissions on a continuous and long‐term basis (about 6 months) with the eddy covariance method [ Lohila et al , ], although a few studies did use the eddy covariance method at landfills but only on a short‐term field campaign basis ranging from a few hours to 2 weeks [ Hovde et al , ; Tregoures et al, ; Fowler and Muller , ; Eugster and Plüss , ; Schroth et al , ].…”
