We are engaged in a broad LCA-type assessment of
domestic food waste management options for local city councils. A key
issue seems to be whether landfill gas recovery systems actually capture any of
the methane from decomposition of food waste or if the food waste decomposes too
quickly for the methane to be captured. My research has uncovered several
mentions of reports on the issue but no definitive references. Any
ideas?
Many thanks
