Item Estudio de factibilidad para la adecuación de una planta de compostaje en un ingenio azucarero(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2022) Callejas Rodríguez, Natalia; Girón Cruz, Jorge Andrés (Director)The agro-industrial process of sugarcane cultivation generates residues such as bagasse, vinasse and cachaza, those due to the production of the sector generate to many residues that are discarded without an adequate treatment causing a negative impact to the environment. those residues, if they are properly treated, have components rich in nutrients that can be applied to soiling crops generating great benefits. the objective of this work is to propose the adequacy of a composting plant to settle the waste problem through the production of an organic fertilizer in a sugar mill. the approach begins with an internal evaluation regarding the waste problem, the company has a space that may be suitable for a composting plant, given this, an investigation is proposed that allows establishing the adequacy of a composting plant which begins with the study of how a composting plant works and what equipment is necessary, once knowing what was needed, the quotations and quantity with respect to the needs are developed, for that the measurements of the space where the composting plant would be built were taken into account, an economic feasibility was carried out to know how the product is in the market, resulting in organic fertilizer being a good fertilizer, being a source of income for the company through marketing. finally, it is established how much the investment that the sugar mill must pay to complete the project would be.
