Eficiencia de plantas de tratamiento tipo para agua residual implementadas en la parroquia Luis Cordero del cantón Azogues

Abstract

The objective of this work was to analyze the purification efficiency of the wastewater treatment that were implemented in the communities of María Auxiliadora and Quillopungo from the rural area of ​​the Azogues canton. These treatment systems are composed of a septic tank and an anaerobic filter, which purify the residual water for avoid the pollution that would be generated by the discharge of effluents to a receiving body. The The development method consisted of conducting a health survey of the population served, an analysis of the infrastructure of the plants, capacity of the inlet and discharge flows, as well as the evaluation of the purification efficiency through the characterization of the water, identifying the level of concentration of pollutants present in the wastewater and the receiving body for end with the estimation of the assimilation capacity of the Biblicay river after the discharge of the effluent. Identifying problems such as the limitations of the infrastructure in relation to the design, in addition, determining that the concentration of contaminants in the parameters analyzed is high and therefore the debugging process is deficient, generating that the level of self-purification of the receiving body water is very low and takes too long to stabilize. Thus concluding, that the type of effluent discharged by the treatment plants does not contribute to the benefit of the environment or the inhabitants of the parish.
