In order to study the estimate of $CH_4$ emission factors in the municipal wastewater treatment plants, the active sludge process, 5-stage process, Denipho process, and SBR process were investigated. When active sludge process, 5-stage process, and Denipho process were used in wastewater treatment plant, the $CH_4$ emission factors were 2.88, 1.61, and 0.57 g-$CH_4/kg$-BOD, respectively. On the other hand, in the case of SBR process, it was 4.14 g-$CH_4/kg$-BOD. These results indicate that SBR process was effective for $CH_4$ emission in municipal wastewater treatment plants. Using the above processes, the methane emission factor and amount of waste water sludge were $4.78m^3/t$ and $12,204,506m^3/yr$, respectively. The remove of BOD was a range of $93.91{sim}98.63%$.
