Factibilidad técnica para producir biogás a partir de un proceso de digestión anaerobia en el tratamiento de aguas residuales de la industria de la palma aceitera (POME).

The present study seeks to identify the technical feasibility of producing biogas from an anaerobic digestion process in the treatment of wastewater from the oil palm industry. Through, the theoretical analysis of biogas production with the use of R software, through the insertion of physicochemical parameters of the POME extracted from previously conducted and published research, consulted in the database of the Antonio Nariño University. By means of this tool, the estimation of biogas is carried out with the help of the programming package "Biogas Package". Starting from two scenarios: first taking into account the COD and second the pH in the working influent; through which the behavior of the biogas generation is shown by changing these variables. It is shown that from the POME it is possible to obtain biogas with an energy capacity of 5.98 W, of which 1.68 W are available for the production of electricity (28.1%), with an economic benefit of 87.86 pesos for each liter of POME treated with anaerobic digestion, which presents an economic benefit and improvement of the environment of the palm industries.
