T

hroughout this article, we will present, in the case of the controlled discharge of Fes which first at the national level is it,

even on the level of Africa, It makes it possible to control all the effluents, while preserving the environment of the city. The

discharge it is the state of the places of production of electrical energy and thermal energy by the cogeneration. The current

production of household wastes in urban environment in Morocco is at 5.3 million tons a year, and in rural environment

1.47 million tons a year. With population growth, rapid urbanization and changes in consumption patterns, household waste

production in Morocco is increasing. The rate of setting in controlled discharge is of 35%, this rate will have to reach 64% after

the opening of several controlled discharges, which are in the course of construction [2]. Household waste in Morocco contains

65%-75% organic matter, so landfills in Morocco are one of the sources of biomass. According to the calculations of the energy

potential of biomass, we can deduce that the amount of electricity that could produce by incineration of household waste from

the Rabat region is about more hundred gigawatt-hours [3].

In this study, we used several techniques of calculation and modeling:

• IBM - Software SPSS,

• Technique of calculation for waste tonnage on the level the controlled discharge

of Fes,

• Software Landfill Gas Emissions Model (LandGEM) version 3.02 of the USEPA,

• Equation potential of production of electrical energy starting from the methane

recovery of the discharge,

• Equation of the thermal power released by the thermal engines of generator.

We will show that the quantity of the electrical energy estimated by the methanation

of household wastes of the discharge of Fes is 65.5 GWh/year, and then these

quantities are currently available to the level of the discharge of Fes. This alternative

allows a reduction of tonnage of accumulated waste.
