What is it about?
This article examines the potential of local waste and biomass on the example of the Republic of Uzbekistan for the development of bioenergy production. To calculate the raw material potential, official and reference data on fertilizers and the formation of organic waste, the accumulation of solid household waste (MSW), which can be considered as biomass, are collected. Based on the collected data, mathematical operations and calculations of the potential of the biogas technology were performed. A block diagram describing the stages of a GIS map has been developed. GIS maps have been created that provide a visual representation of the spatial distribution of the potential of different types of waste in the regions of the republic.

Why is it important?
GIS maps have been created that give a visual representation of the spatial distribution of the potential of various types of waste in the regions of the republic, for the installation of biogas plants in the regions. GIS maps will contribute to attracting investors. Biomass can be used as a valuable renewable energy resource. In order to properly plan the energy scheme, it is necessary to estimate the amount of available organic material over the entire area.
Perspectives
If waste disposal is not carried out at a high level with state support, then the accumulation of solid household waste every year, the area of saline lands will increase from year to year. In this study, the gross potential of various types of waste for the production of bioenergy from animal husbandry and plant waste and other resources, as well as their distribution and suitability for the introduction of biogas technologies were analyzed using GIS in all regions of the Republic of Uzbekistan.
