The Pusztazámor landfill is the largest Hungarian domestic waste landfill site
which was built in 2000, employing state-of-the-art technology. The placement of domestic
waste started in 2000 and will, in all probability, continue until 2005. In the first of three
placement segments, a gas extraction system with a gas booster station and a flare system was
started-up in autumn 2006 in one section to be able to design the final gas utilisation plant with
regard to the gas quantity and quality. After a test operation (pumping trail) of only 6 months, it
turned out that the gas quality is suitable for the utilisation in a gas engine, even in accordance
with the strict TA air 2002 requirements. However, the usual West-European gas prognosis
models cannot fully be applied to Hungary. The conservative designs and calculations regarding
the amount of gas will probably be exceeded by a factor of “1.5 to 2”. Reasons for this could be
the mild climate and higher water introductions into the landfill body. The effect on the
chronological course of the gas production remains to be seen
