Propuesta de implementación de uso de energía alternativa y tecnologías limpias para autolavadoras ubicadas en la Parroquia de Sangolquí, Cantón Rumiñahui.

Abstract

The present project is focused on the increasing amount of demanded inputs and environmental problems generated by establishments that provide car wash service through automatic washing machines located in Rumiñahui-Sangolquí. Through bibliographic revision, it was possible to establish the types of car washing machines that exist in the market, the environmental impacts that each generate and the importance of each of the main inputs necessary for car washing, such as, water, energy and detergent. An initial list of car washing establishments was obtained, provided by the SRI (Internal Revenue Service), which was cleaned through a visit to each of the establishments, which determined the exact amount of manual washing machines and automatic in the study area. In order to know values closer to the reality of the demand of inputs by automatic self-washing machines, a survey was carried out, which also obtained knowledge about the environmental practices used in each establishment. From the information obtained was developed a proposal for the implementation of clean technologies such as: wáter recirculation, rainwater harvesting, alternative energy generation and use of biodegradable surfactants, which are aimed at obtaining the inputs required in development of the automatic car wash process; which will improve the efficiency of washing economically and environmentally.
