Abstract

Oil Refinery Company Santiago de Cuba "ERASOL" is one of the most polluting entities Santiago Bay as their liquid waste is discharged directly into this without receiving prior treatment. In this work determines conveniently through a process of anaerobic digestion, biogas potential of these residues yielding a daily output of 370,24 m3, this volume of biogas would have contributed a total of 166.60 Mwh of electricity in the 2013, saving the company 764,69 CUC, using biogas as fuel saving Fuel - Oil would be 131,38 tons, representing 103 monetary 964,27 CUC, significantly reduces the emission of polluting gases into the atmosphere as the CO2 and SO2, emitting 2 729,99 tons and 203,73 tons in 2013 respectively, at a cost of 54 411 599,8 CUC and 860,57 CUC.
