Descripción
Sumario:The lack of treatment and incorrect deposition of organic waste, resulting from agricultural production has negative impacts on the environment, due to its high degree of pollution, causing degradation of water and soil resources. Much of the processing and manufacturing of products in the agricultural activity depends intrinsically on electric energy for production, being of fundamental importance for such activity. The objective is to estimate the potential of electric power generation, based on the energetic use of methane gas, resulting from agricultural residues, from a biodigester located in the rural area, as well as the evaluation of the economic viability of the system. The biogas production estimate found was favorable to the use of a biodigester for power generation, emphasizing the importance of correctly sizing and maintaining it. That said, the use of agricultural waste brings environmental benefits such as treatment of organic waste and reduction of greenhouse gases. It is concluded that the generation of electricity in rural properties adds financial value and provides renewable energy inputs for agricultural production
