    Diseño y construcción de un filtro separador de grasas y eliminador de impurezas para la lavadora comercial de Autos Lubricar con una capacidad máxima de 15 metros cúbicos mensuales en la provincia de Tungurahua, cantón Ambato en el período 2018-2019
    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería Civil y Mecánica, Carrera de Ingeniería Mecánica, 2019) Galarza Pérez, Alberto Javier; Escobar Luna, Luis Eduardo
    The present technical project is based on the calculation of the dimensions of the grease trap according to the water consumption registered by the Lubricar car washer meter, establishing the dimensioning of the inlet pipes to the trap and the outlet, for ensure a constant flow avoiding overflows and ensuring the proper functioning of the filter. The volume of consumption of the washing machine was determined by the exclusive water meter that has only to wash vehicles, with a monthly consumption of 15 cubic meters, because they have pumps that minimize the consumption of water to wash vehicles. For the sizing of the grease trap the formulas of the Standard are used: OPS / CEPIS. 2003 and Norma RAS., 2000. Title E.4.3., Pág. 28, where these base the measurements of length, width and height depending on your registered consumption. The dimensions of the containers for the filtering materials were based on the hydraulic delay necessary for each material to act. Peat, volcanic stone and activated carbon were chosen as filter elements, using the width of the grease trap the length of the container was calculated. The pipes used in the grease trap are drain pipes, since there is no pressure inside them. Therefore, only the gravity and height difference between the water inlet and outlet pipes are used, in order to circulate, filter and discharge to the sewer system.

    In order to analyze the behavior of a biodegradable material in a laboratory scale prototype bio-filter, wastewater produced in a tannery was treated with pumice, this material was used as a filtering medium, in order to reduce pollution levels of the effluents generated in this type of industries; besides taking advantage of the physical and chemical characteristics of this porous material; and the affinity to absorb dissolved pollutants in wastewater. Water quality parameters such as COD, BOD5, Cr6+ and pH, which were monitored for 15 days; in order to determine the degrees of concentration of contaminants and to know the efficiency of the pumice stone to treat wastewater from tanneries; From the results obtained, it was found that the levels of contamination of the liquid residues of a tannery are very high, besides it was identified that the biggest contaminant of the leather treatment process is hexavalent chromium, since it is considered a toxic, carcinogenic compound and gene mutant; so it needs special care before being thrown into the environment. The results of the study show that the pumice stone helps to reduce significantly the concentrations of pollutants of COD and BOD5, but with the results obtained it is verified that the water treated with the pumice stone does not reach the maximum limits allowed by environmental regulations in these two parameters. But, on the other hand, the results indicate that the pumice stone is a very promising biodegradable material to decontaminate wastewater containing Cr6+; since, it was demonstrated that this material can reduce the aforementioned contaminated up to 80.77% to the efficiency, as the highest value and up to 25.49% as the lowest value. Although the results obtained were not expected, it was shown that the pumice stone can efficiently treat Cr6+; and for future studies you can use this material and make a combination of biomaterials to obtain more effective results.

    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería Civil y Mecánica. Carrera de Ingeniería Civil, 2018) Ortiz Cornejo, Enrique Sebastian; Chérrez Gavilanes, Diego Sebastián
    In the present experimental project, a rice husk filter prototype is being developed for the treatment of wastewater from the "Multiprocesos Gallegos" jeans washing company, located in Pelileo canton, Tungurahua province. The process of sample collection is addressed to be analyzed; raw water is considered to be taken before the filtration process and filtered after the filtration process. The duration and operation of the filter was three weeks, taking two samples each week during the days of highest production. The chemical parameters considered for the analysis were BOD5, COD and color. The collected samples were analyzed in the Lacquanalisis certified laboratory located in Canton Ambato, province of Tungurahua. To have more accurate results, the samples were taken on the same time and transported in a coolant to the laboratory. In the same way, taking raw and filtered samples gives a real appreciation of the results obtained. The results obtained during the three weeks reflect the behavior of the filter and its effectiveness against the parameters evaluated. As a final result it can be evidenced that the filter decreases the values of BOD5, COD and color always considering the Discharge Limits to the Public Sewer System.

    Análisis de la cascarilla de arroz utilizada como filtro en el tratamiento de aguas residuales provenientes de lavadoras y lubricadoras de autos “Polito´s” ubicada en el cantón Tisaleo de la provincia de Tungurahua
    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ingeniería Civil y Mecánica. Carrera de Ingeniería Civil, 2018) Sánchez Sailema, Andrés Santiago; Acosta Lozada, Rodrigo Iván
    The Experimental Work consists in the analysis of the effectiveness of a filter made from rice husk, for the reduction of the concentration levels of the environmental parameters Biochemical Oxygen Demand, Chemical Oxygen Demand, and Oils and Fats, in the residual water from the "Polito's" Car Washer and Lubricator in Tisaleo canton, province of Tungurahua. For this purpose, the filtration system was built, consisting of a storage tank, a pipe for the water conduction by gravity and a square plastic container with some rice husk. After running the tests for 91 days, the concentrations of the parameters were measured 9 times, the first measurement was made directly from the effluent and the remaining 8 once the residual water was filtered. Based on the measurements made, it is determined that the concentration levels without a filter exceed the maximum admissible limits according to the Ecuadorian environmental standards established in the Texto Unificado de la Legislación Secundaria del Ministerio del Ambiente (TULSMA), which are 70 mg/l for oils and fats, 250 mg/l for BOD5, and 500 mg/l for COD. Meanwhile, after the filtering process, the concentration values were reduced below that established by the TULSMA in the case of BOD5 and COD, but not for oils and fats, whose concentration values were reduced but still exceeded maximum admissible limits. Consequently, it is established that the filter based on rice husk is effective to reduce the concentration levels in car washers and lubricators, although in the case of oils and fats it is necessary to carry out a subsequent filtering process.
