Landfill aeration efficiently accelerates municipal solid waste (MSW) stabilization. This method also impacts methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions during aeration. In this study, the effects of three pre-aeration strategies on leachate quality variations and CH4 and N2O emissions from three labscale pre-aerated semi-aerobic bioreactor landfills, which were filled with MSW, were investigated: low frequency and high frequency intermittent aeration (LIA and HIA) and continuous micro-aeration (CMA). Experimental results showed that these three strategies effectively reduced organic and N-based pollutants concentration in leachate. Compared with intermittent aeration (IA), CMA increased cumulative CH4 emissions (92343 mg) and resulted in a longer emission period (95 days). HIA generated the least cumulative CH4 emissions (4297.6 mg) and shortest emission period (65 days) due to organic matter loss during aeration. N2O emissions were present at low levels in early stages for each bioreactor, and then, increased by 1-3 orders of magnitude in the later stages due to low influent carbon-nitrogen ratio. HIA resulted in maximum cumulative N2O emissions (2884.6 mg) and experienced a longer emission period (179 days) compared to CMA (2281.6 mg; 151 days). LIA had the longest N2O emission period (209 days), but had the lowest cumulative N2O emissions (1486.3 mg). CH4 and N2O emissions mainly occurred in the early and later stages of landfill stabilization, respectively. Therefore, the study proposes an optimized pre-aeration strategy for practical landfill aeration management: early CMA may promote rapid organic matter removal and effective CH4 recovery; and late LIA may reduce N2O emissions.
