Project Description |
|
The proposed project will collect and utilize the landfill gas generated at the closed Alton landfill site. The project activity includes two distinctive stages. In the first stage, the methane will only be captured and destroyed through flaring. The second stage is that the captured methane will be fed to the landfill gas (LFG) flare and modular electricity generation plant. The generators will combust the methane to produce electricity for export to a local purchaser. Excess LFG and all gas collected during periods when electricity is not produced will be flared. The maximum installed capacity is expected to be approximately 0.4MW. |

Humphries Boerdery
(Edms) Bpk, piggery methane capture and electrical generation [PDF, 195 kb] |
The project proposes the reduction of methane (CH4) emissions produced from the waste products from the pigs through the construction of a new covered in-ground anaerobic reactor that will utilize the organic material currently treated in the wastewater ponds. CH4 is formed as a by-product of organic material degraded in the primary treatment lagoons. | |
