Considering the high rates of atmospheric pollution caused by the exploitation of fossil fuels on planet Earth, the generation of new, affordable, and economical alternative fuels to minimize this scourge is a widely studied initiative. Biogas production from organic matter represents one of the most promising initiatives in this field. For this reason, this publication presents a theoretical evaluation of the influence that the physicochemical and operational parameters considered in the models that study anaerobic digestion have on the performance and quality of the process of obtaining biogas through this route. The operating parameters analyzed from the scientific literature can be used to perform several simulations, allowing varying parameters such as raw materials, establishing operating conditions, and scaling processes. The results indicate that there are different types of substrates, which are associated with considerable yield percentages; as is the case of pig and cattle manure, carbon/nitrogen ratios were established according to the raw material and the most important reactions of anaerobic digestion. The data of the review were compared with those obtained in the laboratory of transformation of organic materials of the Universidad del Atlántico.
