Propuesta de implementación de un sistema de telemetría en la planta de tratamiento y reservorios de agua potable en Piñas

Abstract

According to the report presented by the United Nations regarding the development of water resources worldwide, by the year 2050, more than half of the world's population will face a large water deficit. To prevent this scarcity, it is important to manage water resources in a more responsible way, so in the present investigation the objective is to analyze the implementation of a telemetry system in the Treatment Plant and Drinking Water Reservoirs in Piñas, as well as such as the placement of essential devices such as macrometers, level control valves, and turbidity sensor at strategic points in the system. A comparison was also made between the SCADA System and its own telemetry with Arduino technology to determine which would be more viable to execute. In conclusion, a proposal is presented for the improvement and optimization of the drinking water system of Piñas. The implementation of a low-cost technology will allow a considerable reduction in the percentage of losses and a better control of water quality. This proposal is aimed at improving the quality and efficiency of the system, making the supply of drinking water constant and reliable for users. It is essential to highlight that this solution will contribute considerably to the sustainability and safety of the water system for the city of Piñas.
