The Caieiras landfill has a biogas-fueled thermal power plant, where methane (CH 4 ) from decomposing organic matter drives electricity generators. CTL burns some of its CH 4 to produce CO 2 and steam (since CH 4 has 21 times the global warming potential of CO 2 ) and sends the rest to a thermal power plant with which it partners.
