Popis:	The aim of this study was to evaluate the theoretical potential of methane production of the food waste generated by a university restaurant, as well as to verify the influence of the fruit and vegetable waste in the feeding composition of an anaerobic bioreactor treating this type of waste. Four feeding compositions combining three fractions of the food waste (fruit and vegetable fraction, soy protein and beans fraction, and rice fraction) at different concentrations were tested in anaerobic processes lasting 10 and 30 days. Additionally, a study of the theoretical potential of methane production from each fraction that composes the food waste was carried out, as well as the evaluation of the specific methanogenic activity of the anaerobic sludge. Despite its low theoretical potential of methane production (0.037 L
