Biogas waste initiative is one big solution to Nigeria’s growing solid waste problem. This study explores the potential biogas processing of organic waste materials and their benefits to the areas where the excess of such organic waste is located. Based on this review, researchers were noted to be proposing lots of distinctive ways to contain generating solid waste and discoveries have been highlighted to show the importance of converting these organic wastes to biogas. Processing is a well-established technology mainly for sustainable energy use generation in addition to the valorization of organic residues. Through this analysis, these wastes were described as enormous sources of biogas that can assist to solve some of the electricity problems in the country.
