Elaboración de un sistema de potabilización de agua con radiación UV-C, para vivienda rural dispersa

Abstract

In this project, the development process and results of a water purification system with UV-C disinfection are presented, used in a dispersed rural home with a natural supply source without treatment. For the development of the system, it was taken into account that the filtration materials had characteristics of effectiveness, economy and accessibility for this type of housing. This, in accordance with the conditions of remoteness or availability of chemical products, which may be factors that disfavor the installation of this type of systems in rural homes. Also, the use of recyclable materials with durable and resistant characteristics was sought during the initial tests of the filters and in the possible sections of the system. This, with the purpose of delivering as a result an environmentally responsible and economical water treatment system.
