Abstract

Through this titling work, the quality of water for domestic consumption, managed by the Junta de Agua Sana Cuendina, Cantón Rumiñahui, was evaluated, for which it was necessary to carry out an analysis of physical, chemical and microbiological parameters in 4 strategic points of the system. of water supply. In the 4 established points, in situ parameters were evaluated, which were: temperature, conductivity, pH, dissolved oxygen (DO), turbidity, for which the use of the multiparameter was of great help, while the parameters: phosphates, nitrites, nitrates, iron, manganese, total solids, total suspended solids, total dissolved solids, BODƽ, COD, total coliforms and fecal coliforms were performed in the laboratory. The results obtained were compared with the maximum permissible limits (LMP) that are established in the Unified Text of Secondary Environmental Legislation (TULSMA) Book VI, Annex I and in the Ecuadorian Technical Standard NTE - INEN 1108. This evidenced compliance with the parameters, however a disinfection proposal was provided with the use of sodium hypochlorite for drinking water. A visual inspection was also carried out in the water supply system, proceeding to recommend activities that allow improving the operation and maintenance of the supply system facilities, which were: Ojo de agua, storage tank, reservoir tank. Finally, the socialization with the members of the community was carried out, indicating the results obtained from the analyzes carried out.
