Slaughterhouses generate an average 6.5 kg of manure/animal. Day. The animals has a weight between 350 and 400 kg. Manure causes economic, environmental and legal problems for the slaughter companies. The aim of this work, was to stabilize the 5,5 % of cattle manure of FOGASA Slaughterhouse by means of low cost digester. The results show organic matter reduce of 60% volatile solid and an average biogas production of 0,9 Nm/d. During anaerobic digestion process efficiencies were reach in terms of biogas production rate, specific biogas production and reduction of the pathogen content of 0,21 m3biogás/m3digestor d y 0,20 m3biogás/KgSV y 90% respectively. The digestate contained nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium, which is an important feature of fertilizers
