Diseño de un humedal artificial para tratamiento de agua residual generada a partir de un invernadero para producción en sistema hidropónico con sustrato

Abstract

Abstract: One of the oldest communities in the Saraguro canton is Ñamarín. Characterized by the practice of community tourism, and home gardens preserve their ancestral traditions, and landscape settings. Taking into consideration the water quality of water resources in the area, the present study seeks its preservation, through the evaluation of the potential implementation of a wastewater treatment system for irrigation water produced in a hydroponic greenhouse. For the development, the taking of sample of irrigation water, wastewater after irrigation, and domestic wastewater that Together they would be treated by the system called artificial wetlands with for their future reuse in cultivation. For sampling, two winter seasons were considered. and summer. To characterize the wastewater and define the design of the system, analysis of physicochemical and microbiological parameters, whose concentrations are compared with Ministerial Agreement 097-A. As a result, the design of the subsurface flow treatment system with an area of ​​54m2 that would ensure an effluent suitable for reuse for irrigation activities.
