The anaerobic digestion of municipal solid waste may be a method that has become a promising technology in waste management throughout the globe. Thus, the target of this study was to optimize the applications of anaerobic digestion to the treatment of municipal solid wastes. To attain this, the pilot scale experiment was conducted in inclined sort plug flow reactor. At first OFMSW was digestible in turn in start-up method to adapt the reactor. The reactor was operated in mesophilic condition (21⁰ to 39⁰C). The start-up method was established over a amount of six weeks and therefore the highest volume of biogas production (193.17L/d) and gas composition (59.74%) was achieved at day twenty eight.
