Methane potential and degradation kinetics of fresh and excavated municipal solid waste from a tropical landfill in Colombia

Abstract The optimization of degradation processes and the management of leachate and biogas produced in landfills are key aspects for the establishment of more sustainable municipal solid waste (MSW) disposal in developing countries. In this study, biochemical methane potential (BMP) tests were use...
