Abstract

The aim of this study was to evaluate methane emission flux based on spatial methane concentration using laser methane detector, and geospatial methodology (Inverse distance weighting) at a landfill. The obtained results showed that the spatial methane concentrations were in good agreement with the methane emission fluxes. Thus, it was concluded that the methane emission flux could be derived from spatial methane concentrations. In addition, the results of the geospatial calculations showed that 12.85% of the total area contributed more than 42.21% of total flux. This suggested that the geospatial methodology might be essential in chamber method to determine accurate methane emission fluxes from landfills.

본 연구에서는 표면 메탄농도와 지구통계기법(거리역산가중기법)을 기초로 표면 메탄발산량을 평가하고자 하였다. 실험결과 표면 메탄농도는 표면 메탄발산량과 높은 상관성이 있는 것으로 나타나, 표면 메탄농도를 기초로 표면 메탄발산량을 산정하는 것이 가능한 것으로 나타났다. 또한 지구통계기법 적용 결과 측정 면적의 12.85%가 총 메탄발산량의 42.21%를 나타내어 챔버 방법으로 메탄발산량을 정확하게 평가하기 위해서는 지구통계기법을 반드시 적용해야 하는 것으로 사료된다.
