    The development of the Good Manufacturing Practices Manual for BENWATER, establishing mandatory sanitary conditions and adequate facilities due to consumer demand for safe and quality products. The main objective of this manual is for the company to obtain the GMP certification issued by ARCSA, reducing the risks of contamination during the production chain that can affect the food and harm the health of consumers. The initial diagnosis of the microenterprise was carried out by means of a checklist based on resolution ARCSA-DE-2022-016-AKRG, which consists of 177 items and three levels of measurement: complies; does not comply; and does not apply due to the nature of the food. The BENWATER plant has 35.00 percent compliance, 44.00 percent non-compliance and 22.00 percent of items that do not apply. In addition, Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and Sanitation Standard Operating Procedures (SSOPs) were developed based on the nonconformities and requirements identified in the microenterprise, to ensure cleanliness, disinfection and product quality control. Finally, an action plan was drawn up by means of a cause-effect analysis of the establishment, using the Deming cycle methodology to carry out corrective actions to mitigate the plant's nonconformities.

    Desarrollo del proceso de desinfección para agua embotellada a base de Ozono (O3) en la Planta de Tratamiento de Agua Envasada de la Empresa Pública - Empresa Municipal de Agua Potable y Alcantarillado de Ambato (EP - EMAPA -A)

    Ecuador is one of the latin american countries with high levels of consumption for bottle water. The Ecuadorian Technical Norm NTE INEN 2 200:2008 establishes the physicochemical and microbiological parameters requested for water to be bottled up, focusing mainly in safeguard the integrity of users who consume this generalized product worldwide. This investigation was done seeing the need of Empresa Publica- Empresa Municipal de Agua Potable y Alcantarillado de Ambato (EP-EMAPA-A), for implementing an efficient disinfection process for bottled water, for this reason Ozone (O3) was chosen between the most effective, considering it`s high microbicidal power, short contact times and minimum quantities of by- products formed. Considering these criteria, it was determined that the optimum dose of ozone in water to be bottled is 0,15 mgO3/L (Dosage Scale: 1,75 g/h), maintaining a residual ozone concentration equivalent to 0,08 mgO3/L and 0,07 mg/L as demand for ozone required to disinfect water. These established concentrations are supported by previous physicochemical, microbiological and sensorial analyzes carried out to verify the quality and guarantee of the water that will be provided to the local community as an additional service by EP-EMAPA-A.
