Mejoramiento de la red de distribución de agua potable para optimizar la calidad sanitaria del caserío El Rosal del cantón Mocha, provincia de Tungurahua

Abstract

Due to the need of the inhabitants to have a drinking water supply system, important to improve the quality of life, the necessary studies are carried out for the correct supply of the vital liquid throughout the sector. The design of the proposal for a drinking water distribution system was carried out and the evaluation of the existing network was carried out, current information was collected from the areas involved, such as: population, topographic survey, survey of the current network, approximate pipe diameters. , distribution flow and dimension of the existing storage tank, in order to determine its current situation, where the new flow determined through the respective calculations will travel, including a storage tank that can fulfill the projected requirements, complying with the current rules and regulations. The drinking water distribution network and the storage tank were designed for a period of 30 years. The evaluated network has sections of galvanized iron pipe, segments with PVC pipe and branches with black hose. The new network is designed entirely of PVC pipes of different diameters with a total of 7,032 kilometers, which were modeled and calculated by specialized software. The projected flow to supply the population corresponds to 3.67 lt/sec. and as products, plans of the distribution system, the storage tank, reference budget, unit price analysis, technical specifications and an estimated work schedule were generated.
