Abstract
Biogas production is characteristic of municipal solid waste landfills. A k nowledge of the trend of this production allows an exploitation of this ene rgy source. The here presented model is more accurate than those that alrea dy exist as it takes the temperature variation in time and depth and the la ndfill settlement into account. The obtained model fits experimental data w ell. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
