Poland piles approx. 11.968 million tonnes of municipal waste per year in 286 active landfills, occupying an area of 1,7416.6 ha (data of the Statistics Poland for 2018). 1 million tons of waste emits ca. 5 million m3/year of landfill gas, the main component of which is methane. Methane has more than 25 times more greenhouse potential than CO2.
