ABSTRACT:
A method of producing methane from the anaerobic fermentation of waste materials, such as municipal solid waste, in a series of cavities in the earth holding such solid waste material and covered with earth excavated from the next adjacent cavity. Various forms of apparatus for withdrawing the product gas of the anaerobic fermentation, separating the carbon dioxide from the methane in the product gas and injecting the thus separated carbon dioxide into an adjacent covered cavity to purge air therefrom and enhance the anaerobic fermentation of the waste material therein is also disclosed.
