The purpose of this report is to explain an investigation concerning Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) in Mumbai, India, Mumbai, and the use of modern landfill technology, particularly for the conversion of landfill gas (LFG) to energy. LFG contains 50 percent methane and 50 percent carbon dioxide and less than one percent non-methanic content. In a typical landfill, LFG will be produced after five years, and is generated from the anaerobic digestion of the organic fraction of municipal solid waste. The existing landfill system of the Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai (MCGM) has many drawbacks with respect to Municipal Solid Waste Management (MSWM), including a lack of environmental codes, a lack of proper funding, and issues associated with management and operational systems. The MCGM would benefit from a proper infrastructure, improved maintenance, and an upgrade for all activities. The capture of LFG can be flared for control of methane and non-methanic content. LFG has a large potential for combustion and use as a fuel. The basic purpose of this project was to explain how LFG could be captured, and how its innovative beneficial reuse can be realized in the Deonar Landfill in Mumbai, India. Operational and maintenance costs associated with reusing the LFG can be covered through tipping fees, the selling of gas, and the selling of energy. LFG, itself, can be sold in containers. LFG as a renewable energy source is recommended for direct use in Mumbai, India.
