Abstract
Non-methane volatile organic compounds (NMOCs) are important precursors of the photochemical reactions which produce ozone and secondary organic aerosols. An accurate emission inventory is essential for air-quality simulations and policy making. The NMOC emission from landfill is an important sector in the anthropogenic source. When estimating anthropogenic NMOC inventory the emission factor for refuse disposal originates from the European study or the estimation for this sector is discarded due to no other referenced data. This research is reviewed the NMOC yields from refuse landfill and the emission factor is from 0.0775 to 3.7625 kg/t. Besides, this paper was particularly concerned with correction of the emission factor by estimating the effects of waste characteristics and the various technologies for landfill. Compared NMOC yields under anaerobic and aerobic conditions for each kind of wastes, only the difference for food waste was obvious.
