Abstract

Abstract: The feasibility study for the domestic water purification project in the Barrio Mater of the Saraguro canton, 2024, was developed with the goal of determining whether the project is viable. By 2049, Mater will house 155 families who will require acces to high-quality water for survival. The information gathered from the Mater Water Board, as well as the market study, technical study, economic and financial analyst, and social and environmental impact evaluation, have all contributed to determining the project`s feasibility. A survey was used as the research method, and a questionnaire was applied to 56 household leaders living in the Barrio Mater. The collected data allowed for understanding the economic activity, monthly income, household size, and the level of acceptance regarding the feasibility study. From a technical standpoint, the project is feasible. Hawever, from a financial perspective, the project isn`t viable. Nevertheless, as a social initiative, the project isn`t intended to generate profits. From both the economic and social perspectives, the project`s feasible because it will improve the quality of life for the people of the Mater naighborhood. Environmentally, the peoject is viable as there aren`t environmental restrictions for its implementation. Therefore, based on all the above, the proposed project is feasible.
