description | The paper presents an estimation of methane emission from deposited
municipal solid waste in Germova landfill located in the Mitrovica Region
for the years 2006–2019. Methane emission was calculated according to the
methodology recommended by IPCC 2006, using default values. Within
framework of the research, the following parameters were evaluated:
population covered by the waste collection service in the region, amount of
landfilled waste, landfill characteristics, and composition of landfilled waste
and climate conditions of the region. Based on these parameters, the total
amount of CH4 emitted from the landfill during 2006–2019 was estimated at
19.3 Gg or 485 Gg CO2 eq. |
