    Análisis del tratamiento de aguas grises procedentes del lavabo de la cocina con el uso de técnicas alternativas en viviendas unifamiliares en la parroquia Atahualpa, cantón Ambato, provincia de Tungurahua
    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería Civil y Mecánica, Carrera de Ingeniería Civil, 2021-03) Peñaloza Mera, Estefanía Gabriela; Chérrez Gavilanes, Diego Sebastián
    The present project aims to implement two alternative techniques capable of purifying and removing pollutants present in the gray water coming from the kitchen sink of a singlefamily home, in order to analyze whether the water treated by these systems is capable of being reused. First, the sector to work was chosen: Area of Santa Fe, Atahualpa Parish, Ambato district, Tungurahua Province. Consequently, a survey was carried out for the inhabitants of the single-family dwellings (MIDUVI) in the chosen sector, where questions were useful for the effectiveness of the design of the proposed alternatives. The first technique is based on a wastewater treatment system composed mainly of a grease trap and a FAFA filter (Up flow Anaerobic Filter); whose designs, construction and operation have been determined based on the Pan-American Health Organization. (OPS) and the Salvadoran Association of Engineers and Architects (ASIA); as an experimental part we used materials such as: crushed lava rock (diameter: 5 cm), rounded rock (diameter: 5 to 10 cm - regulated in the OPS) and crushed moringa seed. This treatment system will include a storage tank for raw gray water, and a storage tank for treated water when leaving the system. The second alternative consists of a treatment system proposed by Katukiza, it is a series filter of silica sand (diatoms) and crushed lava rock (diameter: 0.5 - 1 cm), with gravel bases under each material (diameter: 1 cm); Its design and construction is easier and less expensive, this treatment system will include a storage tank for raw gray water, and a storage tank for treated water leaving the system. The results of the raw water sampling, together with the results of the water treated by alternative 1 and 2, were analysed in the EMAPA quality control laboratory (SAE accreditation), which showed that both alternative 1 and 2 have been able to remove appreciable amounts of oils and fats, BOD5, COD, floating material, nitrites, pH and sulphates; however, alternative 2 showed a better performance.

    In the present experimental work, the optimization of the wastewater treatment plant, built in the “Octopus” vehicle washer, was carried out. In the first instance, possible optimization methods for the wastewater treatment plant were analyzed for each stage of its process. Based on the information obtained, the method consisting of a galvanized steel structure with polycarbonate sheets was selected, which was placed in the settler, which aims to increase the hydraulic retention time. Natural coagulant (Moringa Oleifera) was also used in the settler and grease trap. Maintenance of the wastewater treatment plant was carried out, cleaning it and changing the filters (Peat Bed, Volcanic Pyroclastic and Activated Carbon). Once the cleaning and optimization had been carried out, the samples were taken, which consisted of a sample of two liters of water during a period of eight weeks, in which the: BOD that is consumed during 5 weeks was determined by physicalchemical analysis. days, COD, Total Suspended Solids, Settling Solids, Oils and Fats, Temperature, pH and Surfactants as well as Color, Conductivity and Turbidity analysis. The results obtained in the laboratory were compared with the limits established by TULSMA for effluents that can be discharged to the public sewer network in which all the determinations complied with the regulations, giving a decontamination effectiveness of 93 percent.

    Análisis del bagazo de la caña de azúcar como filtro en el tratamiento de aguas residuales provenientes de la industria de lácteos “Lácteos Valenzuela Divino Niño” de la provincia de Cotopaxi, cantón Saquisilí
    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería Civil y Mecánica. Carrera de Ingeniería Civil, 2018) Toapanta Molina, Álvaro Santiago; Morales Fiallos, Fabián Rodrigo
    In the present work try to evaluate the efficiency of sugarcane bagasse in the pre-treatment of a residual milk effluent; for the development of the work was taken a period of 90 days, which estimated a residual flow of (0.13ltrs / sec) and a final volume = 4680ltrs / Labor day, corresponding a volume of milk waste = 360ltrs / Labor day; the following initial concentrations of Oils and Fats (1324mg / l), BOD5 (2631mg / l) and COD (5560mg / l) are present. The purifying capacity of the filter material is determined by a sampling of filtered water for analysis every 10 days, and by means of the results obtained, establish the time to be replaced, also by through of a microscopic sweep observe the degenerative process of the material. The maximum efficiencies achieved are around: 30.55% (Oils and Fats), 81.07% (BOD5) and 79.78% (COD), during the first 60 days, from there it is necessary to have more accurate and realistic results due to the inconsistent dispersion that can result in the sampling when the industrial production varies in working day and final byproduct, so in the last 30 days of treatment only the BOD5 (relevant parameter) of the waste water treated is analyzed and without treatment from the same collection and generative process of the day defined for sampling, with a filter riverbed change every 10 days. Getting a real average efficiency of 55.97%, and a microscopic sweep revealing a morphological structure dominated by surface wear, pores totally sealed by solid milk residues at micrometric level, separated near-smooth fibers creating gaps between them and even the presence of microorganisms . That said, it establishes a functional useful life of the filter media very short (30 days) and a greater efficiency during the initial 10 days of continuous filtration, in addition it emphasizes the relation cost / benefit being the material suitable for a pre-treatment or tertiary treatment although the adsorbate and adsorbent are of the same type (organic) giving way to a rapid degradation

    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 Rafael
    The 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.
