Abstract
 

Throughout this article, we will present, in the case of the controlled landfill 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 landfill it is the state of the places of production of electrical energy and thermal energy by the cogeneration. In this study, we used several techniques of calculation and modelling (IBM-Software SPSS, Technique of calculation for waste tonnage on the level the controlled landfill of Fes, Software Landfill Gas Emissions Model version 3.02 of the USEPA, Equation potential of production of electrical energy starting from the methane recovery of the landfill, 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 (anaerobic digestion) of household wastes of the landfill of Fes is 65.5GWh/year, and then these quantities are currently available to the level of the landfill of Fes. This alternative allows a reduction of tonnage of accumulated waste.
