ADVANCED PROGRESS OF GREENHOUSE GASES AND VOCs FROM MUNICIPAL SOLID WASTE LANDFILL

With the rapid increase of municipal solid waste landfill，air pollution caused by landfill gases draws more attention． A lot of research has been carried out on landfill gases emission，which concentrated on greenhouse gases and volatile organic compounds． This paper summarizes the recent research progress of three kinds of greenhouse gases and volatile organic compounds in municipal solid waste landfill． The emission estimate，generation models，advantages and disadvantages of monitoring methods，and volatile organic compounds treatment and reutilization，of the solid wastes and landfill gases，both in China and overseas，are introduced． The necessity of research on the correlation among the appropriate landfill gases and secondary pollutants， and meteorological conditions concerning landfill gas emissions monitoring should also been strengthened．
