Diseño de sistema de alcantarillado del campus Machala de la UTMACH

Abstract

The Machala Campus of UTMACH does not have an efficient sanitary and pluvial sewerage network, this is reflected in the winter season when certain areas of the institution are covered with water. The objective of this project was to develop a proposal for a sanitary and pluvial sewerage network, through the application of design methodologies in order to provide an adequate sewerage service to the university community, preventing and controlling the problems that may be caused by the absence of these elements, as well as guaranteeing an adequate environment for the academic training of the students. The field work served to identify the state of the sewage system, which was in poor condition, wells around the swimming pool and court were clogged, and the covers of the boxes were very deteriorated, All the pipes were made of smooth PVC and had slopes very close to zero, preventing the proper flow of water and even a large part of the network, the pipe connections with the wells were inadequate because they left a margin between the bottom of the well and the outlet pipe, causing stagnation of wastewater and rainwater in the wells. In view of these problems, the decision was made to redesign the network, separating the collection of wastewater and rainwater into separate networks
