Abstract

According to data estimated by DANE, in the last decade there has been an increase of 2.59% at the level of population growth, which means that there are 1,017,019 more people in the city of Bogotá, impacting the consumption behavior of citizenship (DANE 2020), increasing the generation of solid waste, especially organic waste, in addition to this, the lack of a culture of separation at the source and recycling has caused the loss of potentially usable material at the secondary level in the supply chain. value, which ends up being buried in the city's landfill, causing a high rate of waste of organic waste in the city of Bogotá. Considering organic waste as unusable waste, the lack of awareness of separation at the source and mainly the absence of processing plants where this material is disposed of, are factors that directly influence the fact that the appropriate treatment is not given to said waste. waste and therefore the utilization processes are not generated adequately, thus being a process alien to the community of the capital district. According to the foregoing, the impact generated by not making the correct use of organic waste is its disposal and burial directly in the Doña Juana Sanitary Landfill, which leads to maintaining a very high rate of waste disposal, thus generating forms a direct impact on the useful life of the landfill, affecting all the citizens of the capital, especially the towns closest to that place, towns such as Usme, Ciudad Bolívar and Tunjuelito, which are affected due to their proximity to the disposal point. due to different types of vectors and odors that could endanger the health of said population, in addition to this the city does not have another place to bury ordinary waste. As alternatives for the use of said material, they focus on the separation and collection of raw organic material, which should be sent to processing plants, which can be divided into: • Creation of Composting. • Creation of Compost. • Creation of biogas through anaerobic digestion.
