Wastewater Treatment Plant Proposal

The document describes the issues related to wastewater treatment and the need to treat it before discharging into bodies of water. The wastewater treatment plant in Ciudad Urdaneta stopped functioning 7 years ago due to high maintenance costs and the collapse of the storage tank. A new proposal is needed to restart the plant and make it useful for the community, including studies on water parameters and alternatives for maintenance.

Problem Statement

For a long time, the disposal and treatment of water


served, industrial, commercial and domestic, has been a problem that has
generated concern in public and private organizations in charge
to preserve the environment.

The bodies of water such as seas, rivers, and lakes, in


many occasions have not been able by themselves to absorb and neutralize
the pollution load that brings impure waste, therefore
losing their neutral physical appearance and their ability to
sustain an adequate aquatic life that represents ecological balance
what is expected of them to preserve water bodies.

From the standpoint of environmental sanitation, the need for


treatment of wastewater generated by various activities of
a population or city since from them you

appropriate treatment that is able to modify its physical conditions
chemical and microbiological to such an extent that their final disposal does not cause
pollution problems in them. Due to the above, the
wastewater treatment plant, both aerobic and anaerobic
they must be designed, built, and operated with the aim of converting these
water through effective purification processes and at the same time be able to dispose
adequately of the solids separated during treatment.

The treatment plant located in the Ciudad Urdaneta urbanization was


inaugurated in the year 2004, which was built to control the waters
residuals to aerobic processes. This stopped functioning 7 years ago due to
that the contracting company did not foresee the great cost that would be involved in the
maintenance of the plant since water treatment was implemented

treatment plant has been inactive since then. On the other hand

with the design of a new proposal, through the realization of certain
studies, such as physicochemical parameters of water, plant facilities,
new alternatives for plant maintenance and utilization

establish solutions that manage to start up the plant and that are useful for
the community.
