Often these communities sustain themselves through family agriculture, with no fixed income, which can generate many difficulties. However, there are a number of social technologies that seek to mitigate some of the difficulties these people face. The best known example of a technology for this purpose is the cistern, which accumulates rainwater so that these families can go through the dry season. The sertanejo biodigestor is a social technology that uses the developed engineering knowledge brings a way that it is possible to generate flammable gas, which can be used for activities such as cooking, lighting, or even power generation, through a motor generator. In order for the installation of the equipment to take place, it is always desirable to analyze the viability of the undertaking, both technical and financial, verifying that the geographical characteristics of the place where the installation is planned are in line with what is expected for the equipment to operate without problems, and if the that will be produced is feasible to recover everything that was invested so that the equipment was constructed and put into operation in a time that is according to the period by which the equipment will work. By analyzing this information, it is then possible, even before the installation of the equipment, to know what is the best use for the biogas and for the biofertilizer produced, according to the characteristics of the site, the agricultural production and livestock, the main needs of the families and of the costs of life of the family.Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Brazilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/br/BiodigestorTecnologia socialViabilidadebiofertilizersocial technologyviabilityfamily farmingbiogasagropecuária familiarbiofertilizanteEstudo de viabilidade da implantação de um biodigestor sertanejo no assentamento Trangola em Currais Novos (RN)bachelorThesisEngenharias.
