Resumo

In the contemporary pursuit of sustainable solutions for waste management and energy generation, this study meticulously examines the viability of biogas production strategies across various urban scales. Through a comprehensive exploration of key indicators including biogas production, waste levels, conversion efficiency, and operational stability, utilizing fuzzy paraconsistent logic, enhanced approaches to energy recovery and environmentally responsible waste management are identified. This study examines biogas production in different urban scales, assessing its correlation with key indicators. Notably, a consistent pattern of moderate energy generation throughout the year emerges, regardless of city size. This uniformity underscores the potential for optimizing waste-to-energy conversion and highlights the role of effective waste management in pollution mitigation. Furthermore, a direct correlation between city size and generated biogas underscores the potential of larger urban areas to utilize substantial waste volumes as an energy source. Consistency in waste levels across diverse contexts further emphasizes the positive environmental impact of this approach. Conversion efficiency exhibits predominant uniformity, indicating consistent energy recovery strategies across various cities. The direct link between operational stability and conversion efficiency highlights its role in optimizing biogas production. This holistic approach underscores the urgency of adaptive strategies and sustainable practices for a cleaner environment and enhanced energy efficiency. Future research can explore the economic implications of energy recovery strategies and delve into their long-term social and cultural viability. Addressing climate change and environmental regulations is crucial for shaping waste management decisions. The study's significance spans various sectors, enriching academic understanding through landfill indicator analysis and informing governmental policies for sustainable energy recovery approaches. This aligns with an environmentally conscious and energetically efficient future, reducing emissions and enhancing waste management practices.
