My career started with landfill sites and landfill generators. Over the past 20 years, Gas Engine Exchange has supplied many customers with high-quality, good-value, electricity-generating engines for their landfill sites.
GEE usually stocks several different sizes of landfill generators, but our most common used landfill generators for sale are in the range of 250kW to 500kW up to 1MW to 1.5MW.
Used Landfill gas engines produce electricity using gas emitted from decomposing waste in landfills.
Using used landfill generating sets is a good way to generate income for the landfill site. This is because the electricity generated by the landfill engines can either be used on the site itself or sold to the power grid. This can be a key income source for any landfill business. Popular models of engines used on landfill sites for power production are Jenbacher (especially the Jenbacher 208 and Jenbacher 320 models), as well Caterpillar, MWM and MAN.
There are several advantages to using used landfill gas engines. Not only are they a good way to generate income, they are also an efficient way to manage surplus gas produced on landfill sites; instead of options such as flaring, for example.
The initial outlay cost of landfill engines can be recouped, sometimes within a matter of years. This is especially true if the company purchases high-quality, used landfill generating sets, which can be less expensive than new sets but work just as efficiently. If you’re in the market for a used or zero-hour landfill generator, or if you are looking to sell your landfill engine, please contact us.
