Biomass - Sabah Malaysia

Besides Landfill Gas (LFG) projects LFGC also specializes in biomass steam and power projects.

The projects in Malaysia aim to use Empty Fruit Bunches (EFB), a waste product of the palm oil milling process, as the fuel for a modern, highly efficient, biomass-fired cogeneration system to supply steam and electricity to a palm oil refinery in Sabah, Malaysia.

LFGC has the expertise and ability to provide a landfill with 3R technologies; a landfill gas (LFG) Recovery system that will reduce odours and explosion hazards significantly from the site and use it as an energy resource, Recycling the landfill leachate water from the site, and Reusing the land after the LFG and leachate water are under control on the site.

LFG recovery could be done while the site is being filled and continues long after the site is closed until gas production is finished, usually 20 to 30 years after closing. LFGC will also develop energy or power projects from gas produced from organic material deposited in daily waste landfills. The gas typically contains 50% methane and other poisonous elements and is used in Europe and North America as either as fuel for industrial or house heating or converted into electrical power for distribution to the power grid. This use destroys the organic contaminants and associated odors.

Landfill Gas Recovery Process

Stage 1: Landfill
Garbage decomposing in landfills creates landfill gas (LFG), this LFG consists of more than 50% methane, which is a high quality combustible fuel. LFGC can collect this gas effectively using state of the art LFG collection techniques.

Stage 2: Extraction
Plastic pipes are used to connect the collection wells and the gas is directed through a header into a processing skid. When the landfill is active the pipes can be located on the surface, but once closed, they can be covered and landscaped.
Stage 3: Compression
Specially designed LFG compression and drying systems remove the dust and water from the gas. By doing this, we obtain clean and dry LFG that is over 50% methane, which is suitable for use as a direct fuel or to generate electricity.
Stage 4: Generation
Gas that is not used as a direct energy source will fuel on-site electrical generators. These generators are run by reciprocating engines, gas turbines, stream turbines or a combination of gas/steam turbines known as combined cycle power generation.
Stage 5: Power
The end result is either electricity or LFG, which can be used directly as an energy source to substitute natural gas. The electrical power that will be supplied to the grid will be enough to supply the needs of thousands of households.
