(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2019) Martinez Ramirez, Andrea; Rojas Figueroa, Jackeline; Salazar Calvache, Oscar Andrés
The treatment of wastewater generated in the Cauca Valley must be done through systems that allow the improvement of the characteristics with which they are to be discharged to a surface source. Given the above, it is important to know what is the situation of the wastewater treatment plants and in this way understand the way in which it is intended to reduce the damage to the water sources of the department. The discharge of discharges from large settlements has led to increased pollution in water sources throughout the national territory, this being a trigger for the development of implementation strategies, according to the National Municipal Wastewater Management Plan - PMAR- of ambitious programs for the treatment and final disposal of wastewater, especially in large cities. The above aims to maintain the balance of water sources, considering their state and dilution capacity. Through a literature review will show how many PTARS has the Valle del Cauca and how is its operation, in addition to knowing what are the most common technologies for the treatment of wastewater.
