Environmental factors influencing landfill gas biofiltration: Lab scale study on methanotrophic bacteria growth
The post-management of landfills represents an important challenge for landfill gas treatment. Traditional systems (energy recovery, flares, etc.) present technical problems in treating flow with low methane (CH4) concentrations. The objective of this study was to isolate methanotrophic bacteria from a field-scale biofilter in order to study the bacteria in laboratories and evaluate the environmental factors that mostly influence Microbial Aerobic Methane Oxidation (MAMO). The soil considered was sampled from the biofilter located in the landfill of Venosa (Basilicata Region, Italy) and it was mainly composed of wood chips and compost. The results showed that methanotrophic microorganisms are mainly characterized by a slow growth and a significant sensitivity to CH4 levels. Temperature and nitrogen (N) also have a very important role on their development. On the basis of the results, biofilters for biological CH4 oxidation can be considered a viable alternative to mitigate CH4 emissions from landfills.
