A landfill with a gas collection system is in operation and
serves a population of 200,000. MSW is generated at a rate
of 1.95 kg · (capita)−1· day−1. Gas is produced at an annual
rate of 6.2 L · kg−1 of MSW delivered to the landfill. The
gas contains 55% methane. Gas recovery is 15% of that
generated. The heat content of the landfill gas is
approximately 17,000 kJ · m−3 (a value lower than the
theoretical value because of dilution of the methane with air during recovery). The landfill company and a developer have proposed to build a subdivision in the vicinity of the landfill and pipe the methane generated to the homes to be used for heating. The homes are estimated to use an average of 110 × 106 kJ of heat energy each year. Peak usage during winter is 1.5 times the average usage. How many homes
can be built in the subdivision?
