CDM Projects

Macedonia / Bitola, Kocani, Kumanovo, Stip, Strumica, Vinica LANDFILL GAS CAPTURE AND FLARING AT SIX DUMP SITES. COMBINED PROJECT ACTIVITY Methane recovery

The aim of this project is to reduce methane emissions from dump sites located in six municipalities in the Central-Eastern and Southern part of Macedonia. Methane emissions could be reduced by installing equipment to capture, collect and flare landfill gas. The equipment for LFG collection and flaring basically consists of LFG extraction wells, gas collection and gas cleaning system connected to a vacuum pump, prior to the flaring equipment. The aim of the flaring process is to convert methane from landfills into carbon dioxide that impacts global warming 21 times less, simultaneously reducing odour and explosion risk at the dump sites.

Macedonia / Demir Kapija, Gradsko, Negotino, Stip, Sveti Nikole, Veles AFFORESTATION IN CENTRAL MACEDONIA Forestry

In the semi-arid region of Central Macedonia, within the territory of the Municipalities of Demir Kapija, Negotino, Gradsko, Veles, Stip and Sveti Nikola, around 30.000 ha16 of bare lands, and degraded abandoned agriculture land and pastures, have been identified as eligible for afforestation under the CDM. The project area is the state-owned land, managed by the Municipalities.

Macedonia / Kočani, Štip, VInica "TRESTEM SKALA" LANDFILL SITE IN ŠTIP AND MUNICIPAL LANDFILL SITES OF KOČANI AND VINICA - JOINT PROJECT FOR BIOGAS RECOVERY AND COMBUSTION Methane recovery

The aim of this project activity is to reduce methane emission from dump sites, located in three municipalities in the Central-Eastern part of Macedonia. The equipment for LFG collection and flaring basically consists of LFG extraction wells, gas collection and gas cleaning system connected to a vacuum pump, prior to the flaring equipment. The aim of the flaring process is to convert methane from LFG into carbon dioxide that impacts global warming 21 times less, simultaneously reducing odour and explosion risk at the dump sites.
