Abstract
The increasing demand for energy and the constraints on environmental aspects motivate theresearch on municipal solid waste to be an environmentally friendly source of renewable energy. Thereforeusing the organic fraction of municipal solid household waste in an anaerobic digester to produce biogas anda digestate which can be used safely as fertilizer. In this study, three reactors of two-liter volume are used toinvestigate the effect of total solid content (10%, 15%, 20%) and pH on the produced amount of biogas. Theresults revealed that a lower percentage of solid content yields the highest amount of biogas and the pH below6.0 will inhibit biogas production. The percentage of methane from the 10% reactor was 50.2 % of the gasproduction
