1 Design of a sustainable sanitary landfill with an integrated energy generation system Presenter: Otieno Benard Okoth F21/2494/2009 Supervisor: Dr. Waweru Muthumbi

2 I ntroduction Wastes are the by-products of what human beings have used and that requires disposal and its management has been of great menace to many municipalities. S tatement of problem and problem analysis Fig Standard newspaper (open dumpsite) (Thursday, May 5th 2011)

3 Overall objective T o design a sustainable sanitary landfill with an integrated energy generation system. Specific objectives To design a sanitary landfill. To determine the amount of power in MW that can be generated from the landfill. To determine the number of households that the generated power can serve.

4 STATEMENT OF SCOPE To design a sustainable sanitary landfill with an integrated energy generation system.

5 Site analysis and inventory Site selection criteria Map: jica report (2010) showing possible landfill sites within Nairobi Metropolitan Area

6 Google earth map showing the area with the surrounding area

7 Literature review Courtesy www.sswm.info

8 Gas generation Leachate generation 3R Cover systems Landfill design Power generation from landfill Number of households to be served Cut-off drains

9 Methodology  Site determination  Data collection  Determination of landfill size  Determination of power generation

10 Theoretical framework  Landfill design Waste after n years = Total waste generation in n years (T) in tonnes

11  Power generation

12 Number of households

13 Evaluation and documentation  Landfill design Approximate Plan Dimensions = 2616.2 m x 1308.10 m An additional 100 m should be left all round the landfill for the infrastructural facilities, thus the total maximum area: = 2816.2 m ×1508.1 m

14  Power generation By using an efficiency of 30% for the conversion of the LFG when using the internal combustion engine to power; = 6.005 MW Puente Hills-50 MW (10,000 T) Durban- 7.5 MW (3000 T) Uruguay-1MW (145 T) Nairobi-6.005 MW (2000 T)

15 Number of households = 339,380

16 CONCLUSION  Successful design  Nairobi County Government encouraged

17 Recommendations  Pre-treatment of waste  Leachate collection and treatment system  remediation methods for the landfill  closure of the existing Dandora dumpsite  Encouraging the use of 3R  Geotechnical survey study

18  EIA  Cut-off drain  Cover systems

19 Conclusion and drawings
