This paper describes the work of the biogas plant in Torun (Poland). Biogas has been obtained from municipal waste since 1998 at the Municipal Waste Landfill Site in Torun. Biodegradable waste constitutes about 45-50% of the waste dumped into the site. These municipal wastes have been disposed of at this site since 1964. Biogas is obtained during approximately 8000 hours per year from 62 wells. The highest methane contents in biogas (>60%) were achieved between 2000-2003 and in 2008. As a result of biogas combustion; thermal and electrical energy is produced. The total quantity of energy produced during a year is 11 000 MWh; but higher amounts were achieved in 2004 and 2008 (nearly 12 500 MWh). The heat and electrical energy obtained is supplied to the city inhabitants by the Power Station Torun S.A. and the Thermal Energy Station Torun Co. Ltd.
