Waste is regarded as one of the major environmental issues facing the modern world. One of the specific goals of environmental preservation is effective waste management due to the growing amount of garbage produced as a result of human activities. The trash issue will be a big burden on the next generation if it is not adequately managed. This paper aims at designing a pilot plant anaerobic digestion system in the Girls' Polytechnic campus which is located in Guwahati, Assam considering the organic waste generated per day. An approach has been made to fabricate the prototype to fit into modern design for better efficiency. The pH and biogas volume was monitored daily to avoid failure of the system. The primary focus of this work is to provide a proper waste management system for the polytechnic campus which is to be done by converting waste to fuel by anaerobic digestion. Thus, the biogas generated will be used in the kitchen of the girls' hostel for cooking purpose.
