Análisis de biomasas obtenidas en el sector rural, municipio de Sibaté – Cundinamarca

Abstract

The correct allocation of our waste is a process of awareness that involves processes of selection and good disposal of solid waste. In this sense, this article proposes the use of organic waste (common waste) from farms or our houses’ kitchens - banana skins, potato skins, eggshells, among others-. For this reason, biodigesters elaborated in an empirical way, which increase the space destined for installation and operation are available. This proposal presents prototypes of biodigesters on a smaller scale -from 50 to 1000 liters-, which use elements usually found on the farm or at home, making use of recycling methods. The assembly of biodigesters was with the purpose of building this equipment with recovered materials. Additionally, planning to make biodigesters at low costs and implement strategies that allow operating with a prototype with these characteristics and produce fuels and renewable energies.

The implementation of biodigesters in rural areas is one of the strategies by which renewable energies contribute to the daily development of activities such as optimizing the solid waste produced daily in farms and houses. The impact generated in the community is related to the conservation of the environment, improvements in the climate change factor and the living conditions of the rural population to encourage the use of natural resources at a general level. The data obtained in the experimental part is reported, as a complement to the work carried out to date.
