Abstract

Households is being an aerobically fermented to generate biogas using locally constructed digesters. By taking into account the experience on bio methane in the center of renewable energy of Sokoto in Nigeria, in China, in India and in several other countries of Asia, South America, We took the initiative to experiment the production at the first time of biogas and second the compost as alternative which can contribute to the solution of the problems respectively: energy for the cooking in the households and fertilization of grounds over-exploited. To this end we test bio methane of disputes substrata which we can find in the households of Niger; estimate quantitatively and qualitatively for the production of the bio gas; verify and argue the conditions of success and popularization of this technology in Africa generally. All these reasons bring us to be chosen by this simple and ecological technology then the use of uranium or coal which the republic of Niger has in big quantity.
