Abstract
Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) management encompasses contemporary concerns of various orders in which social, environmental, economic and energetic aspects stand out. This situation demands a response and strategies from society in the form of public policies, which occurred in Brazil with the sanction of Law 12305/10 and the establishment of the National Solid Waste Policy. The guidelines for environmentally adequate final destination contained in the law open opportunity and stimulate the search for alternatives in energy recovery through thermochemical processes. This work presents a theoretical study about Foz de Iguaçu, Paraná Brazil, city that has had landfill since 2001 and, only in 2017 it received more than 80 thousand tons, of which more than 60% were organic material, according to the Municipal Plan of Basic Sanitation. These and other updated information enabled a simulation of the landfill gas production of the two enclosed cells, using the first-order decay model of the 2006 IPCC. With the landfill gas flow obtained, a scenario of electric power generation using a motor generator set (GMG) was simulated. The results show a landfill gas flow rate recovered between 56.80 to 124.80( Nm^3)⁄(ton.year).The generation of electric power indicate the possibility of meeting the demand of 433 residences.
