Diseño de un sistema de tratamiento de aguas residuales grises provenientes del área de bioseguridad de una granja avícola para su reutilización en riego agrícola

Abstract

The study designed a treatment system for grey wastewater from the biosecurity area of a poultry farm for reuse in agricultural irrigation, evaluating its technical and financial feasibility. A high-water consumption was identified in sanitary activities, with untreated wastewater being discharged. Water characterization revealed that total suspended solids and turbidity exceeded permissible limits. Through jar tests, optimal doses of lime and coagulant were determined, achieving proper sedimentation. A system was designed with a homogenizer, clarifier, and treated water reservoir, ensuring the required quality for reuse. Finally, the financial analysis demonstrated that the project is profitable, as soil conservation benefits outweigh treatment costs.
