It was carried out through a diagnosis of the socio-environmental and economic characteristics and analysis of the residual water parameters for the implementation and feasibility of the project. The following results were obtained in the survey that 63% of its inhabitants consume between 200-300 L/day and that 75% of the respondents highlight that only one person works in their home, in addition, an on-site analysis of the residual water was carried out. of the site determining that in the parameters of BOD5, COD and total solids they do not comply with the discharge limits to a body of fresh water according to the TULSMA. An artificial wetland was implemented as a sustainable development alternative, reaching an organic matter removal efficiency of 91.80% for the BOD5 parameter, 79.00% for COD and 64.30% for total solids. Finally, a cost evaluation was carried out in the implementation of the wetland, as a result of this analysis, a value of $263 was determined for its execution, this being an efficient treatment alternative. It is concluded that the implementation of the artificial wetland is a viable alternative for the treatment of wastewater through natural biochemical processes which do not require external energy or chemical additives. |
