Água residuária para saneamento em comunidades rurais.

Abstract

The environmental impacts were not considered important factors in technological evolution until a few decades because they were imperceptible. From the industrial and technological revolution, it became necessary to intervene in the evolutionary process, in order to minimize the impacts and preserve the environment and sustainability. It is currently the environmental concern one of the most discussed topics in all areas of science. One of the effective measures to reduce the harmful effects to the ecosystem is the environmental sanitation. In view of this need it is intended, with this research, indicate a low cost solution for rural and traditional communities. Through a design of a sustainable health structure as an efficient way to save water, not contaminating the environment, taking advantage of the generated waste and at the same time, promote the comfort and functionality of traditional toilets. To conduct the study was developed and prepared the architectural and engineering design within the recommended standards, including: floor plan, facades, cuts and electrical and hydraulic installations. A health system was implemented (toilet, discharge, sink and septic tank) and a return structure of gray water for storage and re-use. There was a daily average production: 216.90 liters with a consumption of 120.00 liters and plenty of 96.90 liters, which finish a reduction in consumption on the premises, to 2907.00 liters per month. For this was observed during 30 days average for 24 hours of use and water consumption on the premises. It was observed the production of ash and water consumption in use of the toilet. Data analysis results the following conclusion: the big design challenge was adequacy of traditional comfort in the use of the bathroom with significant savings of water. Facilities adapted for use in a sustainable manner had positive results, as this adaptation did not interfere in comfort..
