Estudio de factibilidad para la implementación de un laboratorio de análisis de lixiviados de la Empresa Pública Municipal Gestión Integral de Desechos Sólidos de Ambato (EPM-GIDSA)

Abstract

In the landfill is given the final process of the litter, its degradation produces a toxic liquid called Leachates, it is treated to be discharged and depending on the quality of the liquid, it can generate pollution in the Culapachán river, that is the reason why it has to be controlled and tested in order to check if the liquid gets the allowed limits, taking into account the rules of discharging liquids according to the TULAS. This investigation concluded with the idea of creating a laboratory where the Leached could be studied to control the liquid quality through technical and economic studies. In the technical study, the investigation was based on physical and chemical statements to start a deep analysis of the quality of liquids. From this investigation, the material, the equipment, the lab material and the necessary reagents. In addition, the structural design and basic lab services was created. In the economic research, the results provided financial rates that allowed to accept and reject the project, the Net present value (VAN) of dollars the Indoernal rate of return (VAN) of dollars 30.778,50, the Internal rate of return (TIR) del 35,73 percet, the Cost benefit relation of 1,18, the Period of Recuperation in the Investment of 2 years and 4 months and a rentability of 43,15 percent of the project. The results of the financial rates show that the implementation of a lab to analyze Leachates in the EPM- GIDSA is achievable and it will generate economical savings, at the moment of working by itself, trying not to hire external labs.
