Sizing of a Methanation Unit with Discontinuous Digesters to Optimize the Electrical Efficiency of a Biogas Plant, City of Oujda

Our study focuses on optimizing the electrical efficiency of the biogas plant in the Oujda controlled landfill, with the aim of improving its economic and overall rate of return. For this purpose, the study begins with an analysis of the power generation and operating times of the station which showed a yield not exceeding 23%. These results are due to the control lack over the quantity of biogas and its biomethane content extracted directly from the burial dump of the landfill, and its fluctuation during the day. In this case, the throughput improvement is capped to ensure average production that cannot exceed 15 h of work per day.
