In the preliminary part of the project Estimation of the energetic potential by thermal-physical analysis of urban solid waste (USW) of the city of Salcedo and anaerobic digestion with infrared radiation. A multiple kind of biomass with energetic potential for biogas production from solid urban waste was determined by classifying the USW in this city, the quantification of the percentage contribution of each kind of waste, and the application of the mathematics models for the determination of the generation of flow of biogas. The classification included 9 types of waste, which only 4 were considered as biomass (easy and fast anaerobic degradation), the contribution of the biomass was 63% of the total of the sampled waste (720 kg) during 36 days. The application of the mathematics models was carried out with the projection of weights of the waste from 2015 to 2030. The Ecuadorian model had the best annual average of biogas production flow (〖9,62x10〗^4 m^3) and consequently an energetic value per year of 〖4,86x10〗^5 kWh.
