VENEGAS VENEGAS, José Apolonio; MEDINA CUELLAR, Sergio Ernesto; GUEVARA HERNANDEZ, Francisco y CASTELLANOS SUAREZ, José Alfredo. Biogas: current situation, generation potential in pig farms and environmental benefits in Puebla. Rev. Mex. Cienc. Agríc [online]. 2017, vol.8, n.4, pp.1001-1005.

Puebla is the third largest pork producer in Mexico, several farms in that state are transforming their waste into renewable energy by using biodigesters. The potential for biogas generation and the reduction of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) was analyzed in 37 pig farms with more than 500 pigs each, located in 19 municipalities of Puebla, which showed the capacity to generate 12 669 642 m3 year-1 of biogas, with a potential to stop emitting 69 702 t CO2e.
