Diseño de una planta de tratamiento de aguas residuales para la parroquia de Pifo, provincia de Pichincha

Abstract

The contamination of Pifo in relation to wastewater is a latent problem, pollutants that cover an area of 220 ha. from a population capacity of inhabitants in geometric projection for the future year 2047: 18,230 people, without any treatment plant or biological treatment process to mitigate the current environmental damage. Due to the lack of transfer networks in the towns of the rural sector, the objective is to design a wastewater treatment plant for periodic, continuous or permanent control after its implementation; and, the systematic monitoring of domestic or residential discharges in order to treat the effluents immersed in the project, complying with national standards and achieving a permissible limit when discharging them into the water network of the canton or in order to reuse them. The methodology applied is field based, both for sampling, laboratory tests, sizing and development of the necessary systems and each of their technical elements, by means of specific formulas, weighting and directly proportional relationship with the typology of correspondence and dependence of the wastewater service. In conclusion, the coverage of the plant is visualized in the planimetric design, and in the appropriate socioeconomic and technical studies to comply with the environmental management and wastewater treatment plan, reducing the negative impact of wastewater.
