• Resumen

  • The paper focuses on a case-study that deals on biogas capitalization by means of a cogeneration group that employs the biogas coming from treatment plants. The energy, economic and environment effect resulting from the biogas supplying of such a group has been determined quantitatively. An energy and financial determination of the predicted savings as well as the determining of the investment recovery time and the decrease of the impact upon the environment have also been carried out. The obtained results confirm the opportunity of valorizing the biogas from the treatment plants from an energetic, economic and ecological point of view.
