Abstract: Based on the landfill principles,large scale installations of anaerobic and semi-aerobic landfills were established,with the concentrations of CH4,O2 and CO2 detected regularly.The results showed that the average CH4 concentration in semi-aerobic and anaerobic landfill installations was 7%~13% and 35%~50%,respectively,indicating the better effect of semi-aerobic landfill in reducing CH4 production.The CH4 and O2 concentrations in the two landfill installations all presented obvious spatial layer effect,i.e.,under-layer > middle layer> upper layer for CH4,while upper layer > middle level > under-layer for O2.

Key words: Semi-aerobic, Municipal solid waste, Landfill gas, Methane
