INSTRUCTIONS:
Edit all items with yellow lettering following the instructions next to each item. Items with white lettering cannot be changed.
Instructions below describe input requirements.

INPUT WORKSHEET
1 Landfill name:

<Ime deponije>

2 City:

1. Enter landfill name. This will feed into the Output Table.

<kragujevac>

3 Province:

2. Enter city where the landfill is located. This will feed into the Output Table.

Kiev

4 Site-specific waste composition data?

3
No

5 Year opened:

4. Select No if there is no data, Yes if there is data. If Yes, input site specific data in Waste Composition worksheet.

1970

6 Annual disposal for latest year with data in tonnes per year (Mg/yr)
7 Year of annual disposal estimate

5. Enter year landfill began receiving waste.

58,600 Mg
2013

8 Waste in place estimate available in tonnes (Mg)?

9 Waste in place estimate for end of 2008 or most recent year:
10 Estimated in-place waste density in Mg per m (typical range: 0.5-1.0):

11 If waste in place estimate is in volume (m3), convert to Mg:

3. Select province from the dropdown menu. Click on arrow and select state. Software will automatically select the climate
region.

6. Enter the annual disposal rate for the most recent year with disposal records.
7. Enter the most recent year with disposal records. If no disposal records or annual estimates are available, leave blank.

Yes

8. Indicate whether data is available on metric tonnes of waste in place. Select "No" if only volume data are available. If
annual disposal data are available, enter figures for each year with data in Disposal & LFG Recovery worksheet.
9. Enter estimated amount of waste in place. Estimate should reflect the most recent end-of-year value available. Units of
measure for mass (Mg) or volume (m3) will be automatically selected based on answer to #6.

0.65 Mg/m3 10. Enter estimated in-place density. Estimate should be between 0.5 and 1.0 Mg/m3 for MSW landfills.

including discounts for areas with steep slopes)
21. Enter a value up to 100% for % of waste area with intermediate cover but no final cover (reflecting conditions at time of
gas system installation)
22. Enter a value up to 100% for % of waste area with daily cover only (reflecting conditions at time of gas system
installation)
23. Value automatically calculated as the remaining area
24. Enter a value up to 100% for % of waste area with clay or synthetic liner

25 Is waste compacted on a regular basis?

NOTES
* Maximum power plant capacity assumes a net heat rate of 11.4 MJ per kW-hr (hhv).
**Emission reductions do not account for electricity generation or project emissions and are
calculated using a methane density (at standard temperature and pressure) of 0.0007168
