This research addresses the use of methane (CH4) for energy generation in a landfill located in Southern Mexico. To evaluate the feasibility of this renewable and sustainable energy project, a LandGEM model was used to estimate the CH4-emissions, the environmental benefits and the economic profitability. Taken together, results showed an average CH4-production of 2932 ft3/min, with a maximum CH4-generation flowrate of 4072 ft3/min (115.3 m3). Energy generation resulted in 32.396 million KW h/year with a hot water/steam production of 63.990 million BTU/year. The installed capital costs of a 15-years project were estimated in $9,034,907 USD; economic parameters showed a financial profitability with a net present value of $6,304,060 and an internal rate of return of 25%. The environmental benefits reported a total collection and destruction of CH4 at 9,824,469,979 ft3 (278,198,009.2 m3). The results obtained in this research can be used to conduct further studies to implement waste-to-energy technologies in Mexico and thus improve the sector of sustainable and renewable energy.

墨西哥南部垃圾填埋场甲烷排放产生能量的可行性

这项研究致力于将甲烷(CH 4)用于墨西哥南部垃圾填埋场的能源生产。为了评估此可再生和可持续能源项目的可行性,使用LandGEM模型估算了CH 4的排放量,环境效益和经济效益。综上所述,结果显示平均CH 4产生量为2932 ft 3 / min,最大CH 4产生流量为4072 ft 3 / min(115.3 m 3)。发电量为3239.6万千瓦时/年,热水/蒸汽的生产量为639.9万英热单位/年。一个为期15年的项目的安装资金成本估计为9,034,907美元;经济参数显示出财务获利能力,其净现值为6,304,060美元,内部收益率为25%。据报道,环境效益表明,CH 4的收集和销毁总量为9,824,469,979 ft 3(278,198,009.2 m 3)。这项研究中获得的结果可用于进行进一步的研究,以在墨西哥实施垃圾发电技术,从而改善可持续和可再生能源领域。
