USA some manufacturing plants have chosen to locate near a landfill for the express purpose of using LFG as a renewable fuel that is cost-effective when compared to natural gas. The number and diversity of direct-use LFG applications is continuing to grow. Project types include: • Boilers, which are the most common type of direct use and can often be easily converted to use LFG alone or in combination with fossil fuels. • Direct thermal applications, which include kilns (e.g., cement, pottery, brick), sludge dryers, infrared heaters, paint shop oven burners, tunnel furnaces, process heaters, and blacksmithing forges, to name a few. • Leachate evaporation, in which a combustion device that uses LFG is used to evaporate leachate (the liquid that percolates through a landfill). Leachate evaporation can reduce the cost of treating and disposing of leachate. 2.1.1 Process Heat Generation The simplest and often most cost-effective use of LFG is as a fuel for boiler or industrial process use (e.g., drying operations, kiln operations, and cement and asphalt production). In these projects, the gas is piped directly to a nearby customer where it is used in new or existing combustion equipment (Picture 6 and 7) as a replacement or supplementary fuel. Only limited condensate removal and filtration treatment is required, but some modifications of existing combustion equipment might be necessary. Picture 6. Boiler fuelled by landfill gas.
