    Diseño y construcción de un filtro separador de grasas y eliminador de impurezas para la lavadora comercial de Autos Lubricar con una capacidad máxima de 15 metros cúbicos mensuales en la provincia de Tungurahua, cantón Ambato en el período 2018-2019

    The present technical project is based on the calculation of the dimensions of the grease trap according to the water consumption registered by the Lubricar car washer meter, establishing the dimensioning of the inlet pipes to the trap and the outlet, for ensure a constant flow avoiding overflows and ensuring the proper functioning of the filter. The volume of consumption of the washing machine was determined by the exclusive water meter that has only to wash vehicles, with a monthly consumption of 15 cubic meters, because they have pumps that minimize the consumption of water to wash vehicles. For the sizing of the grease trap the formulas of the Standard are used: OPS / CEPIS. 2003 and Norma RAS., 2000. Title E.4.3., Pág. 28, where these base the measurements of length, width and height depending on your registered consumption. The dimensions of the containers for the filtering materials were based on the hydraulic delay necessary for each material to act. Peat, volcanic stone and activated carbon were chosen as filter elements, using the width of the grease trap the length of the container was calculated. The pipes used in the grease trap are drain pipes, since there is no pressure inside them. Therefore, only the gravity and height difference between the water inlet and outlet pipes are used, in order to circulate, filter and discharge to the sewer system.
