    The need to implement autonomous, efficient, and low-cost irrigation solutions in rural areas led to the development of a WIRTZ-type hydraulic pump for use in the Totoras parish, Ambato canton. This project directly addressed the energy and economic limitations faced by local farmers, offering a sustainable alternative that does not rely on external power sources. The applied methodology was mixed. The qualitative approach involved identifying environmental conditions and user needs, while the quantitative approach focused on collecting and analyzing hydraulic site parameters. The research followed applied, experimental, and descriptive modalities, enabling the design, construction, and functional evaluation of a prototype. The system features a 719 cm³ intake funnel connected to hoses with a gradual reduction from 25.4 to 19 and then to 13 mm, allowing control over fluid velocity. The coil was dimensioned using the relation H ≈ 0.15·L, and the working pressure was determined to be 19.62 kPa. Structural simulations showed minimal displacements in critical components and safety factors greater than 5, validating the robustness of the system. As a result, an operational, stable, and functional pump was obtained, capable of continuously moving water without the need for external energy, positioning itself as a viable and replicable solution for irrigation in agricultural communities with limited resources.

    This degree project aimed to design and build a prototype of a manual maize seeder and dispenser, intended for small and medium-scale farmers who require a simple, cost-effective, and easy-to-operate tool to help optimize and improve the sowing process. The technical development began with the study of existing similar equipment, which made it possible to identify the needs of the agricultural environment and gather ideas for both design and materials. Experimental and field methodologies were applied to validate the prototype's performance through tests on seed and fertilizer dosage, furrow opening and covering, and input usage. Direct observation confirmed that each component of the machine performed its function correctly and efficiently. During field tests, the final prototype demonstrated proper performance by accurately depositing seeds, maintaining appropriate spacing between seed groups and furrows, and achieving correct furrow opening and coverage. These results met the technical requirements for proper sowing and fulfilled the expectations of the partnering organization. Therefore, it can be concluded that the prototype meets the proposed requirements and represents a viable alternative for improving manual sowing in rural areas. Its design is accessible, improvable, replicable, and adaptable, as it is built with materials readily available in the local market. In this way, it becomes a valuable contribution to the agricultural sector and to those who work the land every day

    This project arises from the problems that exist for producers in the Cevallos canton during the corn dehydration process, a process in which they manipulate the corn outdoors, exposing it to the growth of bacteria or possible germination; Therefore, they require the dehydration process for conservation, consumption and seed. In the province of Tungurahua there is a global average of solar insolation that was used as an energy resource, a corn dehydrator was designed and built, information was taken that allowed determining the parameters for the design, using the INEN 2050:95 standard; The CONELEC solar map and the INHAMI meteorological station revealed the amount of global irradiation and the peak solar time; The selection of materials was carried out based on efficiency, budget and operating conditions, presenting the tunnel-type dehydrator. Using simulation and design software, the behavior of the components that are part of the heat transfer was presented. From the dimensions obtained, the dehydrator was built, with a capacity of 10 kg considering that the humidity must be reduced to 14 percent for 3.45 days. As a result, an operation and maintenance manual was created, providing added value to the production, storage and transportation chain of corn according to the level of impurities and humidity that govern the quality and price of the product in its future commercialization.

    This technical paper was focus on the design and construction of a high shear immersion homogenizer, which was carried out due to the importance of the implementation of creating a tool like this. This facilitates the mixing, emulsion and homogenization of substances all related to the creation of nanofluids. In fact, the homogenizer was created for The Technical University of Ambato with particular reference to the Mechanical Engineering career. Furthermore, construction and functional tests were carried out. While for the design several technical characteristics were taken like (materials, dimensions, mechanisms, use. Etc.). This device is made up by a three-phase motor, a pulley mechanism, a tollined structure, a rotating shaft, a turbine, a work head, a lifting mechanism with 3D printing jaws and an electronic system that helps us to operate it. On the other hand, construction took into account materials available in the market, and of course verifying each of the construction processes. Lastly, functional and experimental tests were performed in order to confirm operation process and homogenization of substances with a main goal which is to create a nanofluid at different times. To ensure effective operation and durability of the device, an operating manual was prepared. It indicates the way to proceed while it is being use, extending the useful life of the device

    Population growth, as well as industrial development, urbanization and other processes and effects of development experienced by Latin American countries, have been producing a considerable increase in the amount and variety of solid waste generated in the activities developed by the population. The problems caused by improper handling of this waste are affecting both large cities and their marginal areas, as well as small rural populations. In many Municipalities, the empirical management of the urban cleaning service, with an obvious lack of technical, economic and social criteria, has caused this service to lack proper planning and organization, which has resulted in high operating costs than the same Municipalities have had to subsidize consuming a good part of their budget. As a consequence of the above, it is the permanent economic deficit that exists in a large number of cleaning services and, the inadequate practices of final disposal of garbage, which due to lack of resources, interest or technical knowledge are discharged inappropriately inside or outside of urban areas, giving rise to a number of scattered landfills, which generate, among others, a social and public health problem. The social problem is based on people who are dedicated to segregating and marketing waste, who perform these activities in unacceptable risky and precarious conditions in a modern society. The danger to public health arises in the same dumps, which in addition to causing bad odors and aesthetic problems, are the cradle and habitat of flies, rats and other vectors of diseases and sources of air pollution or surface or underground water sources. The above could be controlled, if the final disposal of the garbage was done in a suitable way, such as a sanitary landfill operated correctly, which would also allow to prevent contamination.
