Item Evaluación de la planta de tratamiento de aguas residuales de la parroquia totoras, cantón Ambato, provincia de Tungurahua(Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería Civil y Mecánica, Carrera de Ingeniería Civil, 2022-03) Pico Freire, Doris Karina; Castro Solorzano, Fidel AlbertoIn the present experimental work, the evolution of the wastewater treatment plant of the Totoras parish belonging to the Ambato Canton was carried out, with the purpose of determining the current state of both its structure and the quality of treated water that it discharges into the Pachanlica River. The evaluation of the PTAR began with an analysis of the population in which it intervenes, the socio-economic activities of the parish and the year in which it was created. The hours in which there was greater and lower flow of both input and output of the PTAR were determined, the data obtained were tabulated through the use of Excel software in which the information was represented in the form of graphs, in addition it was possible to determine the physico-chemical properties presented by the water of both the tributary and the effluent through tests in a specialized laboratory in order to determine the composition of the water residual. The physical units were evaluated (Grids, Sandblaster, RAFA, FAFA and sludge drying bed) which presented fissures, cracks, concrete detachment and landslide that endangered the tank of arrival of the wastewater, on the other hand, two of its units that are of vital importance such as the grids and the sludge drying bed did not meet the parameters established in the design manuals of the treatment plants. Finally, with the evaluation carried out, an operational improvement plan was developed for the PTAR.
