Abstract

The gases produced from Sanitary Landfill are to be monitored and collected so as not to cause environmental pollution. TPA Bangklet in Bangli District, Bali Province is
currently being reviewed and further developed to be pilot Sanitary Landfill in Indonesia. A system of monitoring and capturing or collecting LFG (Landfill Gas) has been done to
Bangklet’s Sanitary Landfill of the dry Cell Pilot Plant, especially for the second layer. LFG measurement results show the average value of 32.99% for CH4, 31.87% for CO2, 5.4% for O2 and up to 29.68% for other gases. But the arrests and the collection of LFG system still needs improvement, because there are some leaks that led to the entry of oxygen into the system and vice versa the LFG is released into the atmosphere. It is suggested that the pattern of capture, and utilization of LFG monitoring system have to be applied to all Sanitary Landfills located in Indonesia.
