Item Análisis del carbón activado como filtro en el tratamiento de aguas residuales provenientes de un camal ubicado en el barrio El Porvenir del cantón Tisaleo, provincia de Tungurahua(Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería Civil y Mecánica. Carrera de Ingeniería Civil, 2018) Escobar Peñafiel, Fernanda Lizbeth; Maldonado Narvaez, Lenin RafaelThe main objective of this work is to design a prototype filter with activated carbon to show the results obtained from a filtering process during the time of 90 days with weekly sampling, as a sample we have the sample at the beginning to the residual water as it exits the process of raw water and then compare it with the treated water through the filtration, these results will be compared every week and also compare with the permissible limits for the evacuation to the public sewer of the Book VI Annex 1: Environmental Quality Standard and effluent discharge resource: Water from the Unified Text of Secondary Legislation, Environment. The parameters that were analyzed were Oils and Fats, Biochemical Oxygen Demand in 5 days (BOD5) and Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) in a specialized laboratory, and once the results were obtained, the efficiency of the filter was verified using The percentage of removal that the water presents as time passes and it was concluded that the filter significantly decreases the parameters of BOD5 and COD and in a lower percentage the parameter oils and fats. Further research may be recommended to be used as a final process, not with the water that comes out directly after the slaughter process is completed, but rather after having undergone a conventional treatment such as for example only eliminating odors and clarifying it in this way can give better results.
