Estimation of Green House Gas (GHG) emission at Telaga Punggur landfill using triangular, LandGEM, and IPCC methods

Abstract

Landfill gas (LFG) is one of the largest greenhouse gas (GHG) contributors. By knowing the GHG inventory, disaster prevention efforts can be carried out. The purpose of this study was to determine the GHG quantity of the Telaga Punggur landfill sector using triangular, LandGEM, and IPCC method. CH4 and CO2 that is calculated from Telaga Punggur landfill waspeaked in 2021. LandGEM application estimated CH4 and CO2 emissions which are 1.7x107 m3 and 1.1x107 m3 at peak year, 2021. Total GHG for 2021 is 2.3x107 m3/year with LandGEM program, 2.2x107 m3/year with IPCC program, and 1.5x107 m3/year with triangular program.
