Biogas Journal | <strong>Autumn</strong>_<strong>2017</strong> English Issue<br />

One of the 250<br />

sources of gas at the<br />

San Niclas landfill.<br />

The landfill gas is collected through a network<br />

of pipelines and fed into the generator via a gas<br />

collection point.<br />

José Luis Valadez Bastos, technical director<br />

of the San Nicolas landfill gas plant in the<br />

state of Aguascalientes.<br />

example, or various environmental requirements and<br />

national trading with CO 2<br />

certificates, which is currently<br />

still in the pilot phase. Some large projects appear<br />

regularly in the media without any real progress being<br />

made, such as the use of landfill gas at Bordo Poniente –<br />

once the largest landfill in the world, closed in 2012 –<br />

for the new airport in Mexico City. Or the construction<br />

of the world’s largest biogas plant at the large market in<br />

the mega-metropolis to make use of the 2,000 tonnes<br />

of waste generated daily.<br />

Eugenia Kolb from the German-Mexican Chamber of<br />

Industry and Commerce (AHK Mexiko) still sees good<br />

opportunities for companies from Germany on the<br />

Mexican market for bioenergy. For this reason, the AHK<br />

Mexiko offers regular informational events and trips for<br />

industry stakeholders.<br />
