Abstract
Nowadays, generating energy is discussed as a paramount option in waste management, because the share of energy from waste is increasing annually. The ever‐increasing need for energy and limitations of using fossil resources, and also the increase in environmental pollution from consuming these resources have made the use of renewable energies of especial importance. In this research, we first studied renewable energies, followed by technologies related to the biogas system. Biogas systems have been referred to by landfill and discussed comprehensively in this scheme for utilization. For this purpose, the input source of this system is considered as the volume of garbage in the city of Germi as the study area. In the next step, the amount of garbage produced in this city was extracted and the Landfill software was used for methane production potential assessment from this system and the Homer software was used for economic analysis and reliability evaluation. The most important results are payback period, which is about 10 years, and the amount of electricity produced per year, which is 11658.265 MWh.
