Stirling Engine on Landfill Gas

Post by tiovicente »

We are interested in a Stirling Engine powering a commercial freezer
operating on gases (Methane) from a Waste Landfill. Please advice

Perhaps an absorption refrigerator?

You might want to consider an absorption refrigerator instead; this kind of refrigerator uses a source of heat directly for refrigeration.

Wikipedia discusses absorption refrigerators, some of which are commercially available. I don't know if any of them are designed to burn methane for the heat source.
