Abstract

The objective of this work is the management of organic solid waste, rich in organic matter, by anaerobic digestion. The device set up is a batch reactor for the production of biogas. The organic waste used comes mainly from households, consisting of 80.4% organic matter. The anaerobic digestion of this waste gave in 70 days 9 liters of biogas composed of 57.35% methane and 32.4% carbon dioxide. Upgrading of biogas would allow to produce 1235.27 kWh of primary energy per ton of solid household waste treated and to avoid an emission of 6.34 ${\mathrm {tCO_{2}e_{q}}}$. It would make it possible to avoid 77.54% of the emissions compared to landfilling.
