Diseño del sistema de alcantarillado sanitario de los barrios Chile y Santa Barbara de la parroquia de San Buenaventura, cantón Latacunga, provincia de Cotopaxi

Abstract

Sanitation systems play a fundamental role in the treatment of wastewater, health, environmental well-being and counteracting pollution. From this, the provision of the studied sector significantly improves the quality of life of human beings. However, in the parish of San Buenaventura, the Chile and Santa Barbara neighborhoods lack an optimal and efficient system. Therefore, the primary objective of this project was to design the sanitary sewer network. The project was divided into three fundamental stages, each one having specific methodologies that were implemented in the territory. The first was divided into a detailed topographic survey, the application of surveys and an analysis of the supply of drinking water. The second focused on the design of the sanitary sewer system following the Ecuadorian regulations, SENAGUA, the Bolivian Standard NB 688, and finally, on the "Standards for the Study and Design of Wastewater Systems for Populations Over 1000 Inhabitants." Finally, the third focused on the evaluation of cost analysis and construction programming. Based on the established parameters, a sewerage network was developed, comprising a total of 64 wells and 73 sections of pipes. This network has a total length of 4.08 kilometers and covers a catchment area of 54,805 hectares. After an exhaustive analysis, it was confirmed that the design of the sewerage system complies with current regulations. In addition, an estimate of the budget required for its construction was made, which amounts to 298,226.52 dollars. Finally, it was determined that the time required to complete this project is approximately 2 months and 2 weeks, thus ensuring an efficient and effective implementation of the infrastructure.
