Abstract
Landfilling of solid waste has been the most preferred method for solid waste disposal due to technical feasibility, ease of operation, minimum supervisions and low operation expenditure. In this study, cattle manure was co-digested with different amounts of landfill leachate (30, 40, and 50 % v/v) to evaluate the production yield capacities of biogas, CH4 and the efficiency in the relationship Liters of CH4 /L of leached . The highest biogas yield was obtained from the treatment with 50% leachate dose (T3), produced 1466.75 mL of CH4 after 48 days of co-digestion with an efficiency of 7.33 L of CH4/L of leachate, while, in the bioreactor T1 (30%) the second best production of CH4 was obtained with 910.57 mL with the highest efficiency of 9.11 L of CH4/L of leachate. This allows inferring a high potential in the use of leachate in initiatives based on the circular economy in the face of the challenges of achieving sustainability in the efficient management of municipal urban waste.
