Abstract

The present invention relates to an organic matter biodigester comprising a tank that has an organic matter inlet, a first connection arranged in an upper portion of the tank and a second connection arranged in the lower portion of the tank. Furthermore, said tank also has a biogas outlet and a lower surface configured to rest on a support surface. Furthermore, the lower portion of the tank is at a shorter distance from the support surface compared to the upper portion of the tank. Said organic matter biodigester also comprises a manual pump with a pump inlet connected in the second connection, and a pump outlet connected in the first connection of the tank. The pump is configured to recirculate the organic matter inside the tank from the second connection towards the first connection; and a porous layer arranged inside the tank.
