Abstract
Landfill gas (LFG) is a methane-rich gas produced by the decomposition of organic waste in landfills. It has the potential to be a greenhouse gas, but it can also be a valuable source of energy. LFG can be used to generate electricity, heat, or fuel. Renewable natural gas, abundant in methane derived from organic matter or waste streams, can undergo processing to align with established specifications for conventional fossil natural gas pipelines and vehicle use. This article assesses the present state of understanding concerning the transformation of landfill gas into a valuable fuel resource. This study shows the methods for LFG collection and conversion into usable fuels, along with the environmental benefits and challenges associated with its utilization and usage. In this study, a thorough examination was conducted concerning the waste generated in residential communities, specifically within the rural districts of Adana, known as the Yedigoze region. This research focused on assessing the gas potential derived from these waste materials and their potential environmental implications when employed as a fuel source for municipal buses. The transitioning analysis of 50 diesel buses to compressed natural gas (CNG) buses resulted in a remarkable reduction of 950,625 kg of CO2 emissions in one year.
