Abstract

The energy production from renewable sources is one of the main issues to reduce environmental damage and more precisely greenhouse gases (GHGs) emissions. The utilization of landfill gas as fuel for electrical energy production can be an important way to reduce the landfill impact on the environment as it represents one of the major emission sources of GHGs..
