Ítem Propuesta para el manejo y disposición de residuos orgánicos generados en la plaza de mercado de Girardot, Cundinamarca(Universidad Distrital Franciso Jose de Caldas) Pabón Amado, Laura valentina; Sánchez Sánchez , Fernando; Sánchez Sánchez, Fernando [0000-0002-1038-3055]The Girardot marketplace generates 60% organic waste, most of which is not properly disposed of. Factors such as a lack of environmental awareness, insufficient infrastructure, and the absence of effective policies have aggravated this situation, leading to environmental contamination, pest proliferation, and an overload on final disposal systems. This document proposes a strategy for managing and utilizing organic waste in the Girardot marketplace, Cundinamarca. The lack of source separation and inadequate waste management are identified as significant environmental issues. Therefore, an approach based on environmental education and proper waste utilization is proposed, emphasizing the need for effective source separation to minimize the loss of potentially reusable waste. According to UAESP (2014), for any organic waste utilization system to be implemented, organic waste must no longer be considered as ordinary waste and must be separated from other waste streams. Additionally, this study explores alternatives to enhance the potential use of organic waste through techniques such as vermiculture and composting.Ítem Energía solar fotovoltaica para funcionamiento de equipos e instrumentos en el Laboratorio de Servicios Públicos de la Universidad Distrital Francisco José de CaldasHernández Sánchez, Camilo Andrés; Ladino Peralta, Rafael Eduardo; Ladino Peralta, Rafael Eduardo [0009-0009-5932-2825]In order to cover the energy demand of the instruments and equipment present in the public services laboratory, this study presents a quantification of the energy required along with the generation of electrical energy from the Solar Photovoltaic System that is located in the laboratory of public services (Laboratory 403), of the Faculty of Environment and Natural Resources of the Francisco José de Caldas District University, Bosa Porvenir headquarters, for this purpose simulations of atmospheric conditions of the site where the laboratory is located were carried out to estimate the solar irradiance that can be achieved with the use of the PV*SOL Premium software.

It is situated in the field of assessing the impact of climate change on living beings, specifically the May Beetle (Clavipalpus ursinus Blanchard, 1850). Similarly, it examines the feasibility of using this species as a biological indicator sensitive to environmental fluctuations, offering a perspective on the direct impact of climate change on this specific habitat. At the national level, studies on bioindicator organisms reinforce the relevance of these beings in environmental assessment and the implications of climatic fluctuations on habitat alteration and the morphology of living beings. In the case of this research, it focuses on coleopterans that may be sensitive to these fluctuations and are located in an urban recreational area adjacent to the Fucha River basin and the Burro Wetland. This research aimed to evaluate the potential of the May Beetle (Clavipalpus ursinus Blanchard, 1850) as a biological indicator of climate change in the San Ignacio del Tintal Patinódromo, considering the morphological changes observed in individuals of the species located in the Patinódromo over a two-year period. The methodology used for the research corresponded to a mixed approach, combining qualitative and quantitative methods to collect representative data on the behavior and reproduction of the May Beetle and its relationship with climatic fluctuations. For the qualitative phase, The results underscore the importance of insects, including the May Beetle (Clavipalpus ursinus Blanchard, 1850), as biological indicators of ecological and environmental conditions related to climate change. Based on the parameters used for the qualitative part, an environmental diagnosis of the Patinódromo was conducted, along with an analysis of the morphological conditions of the beetle to verify changes in the sampled individuals over the course of two years. Additionally, the research highlights the need to assess biodiversity and the response of specific species to environmental disturbances to implement conservation strategies.Ítem Formulación del programa de gestión de integral de residuos sólidos (PGIRS), para el conjunto Marbella Reservado en la localidad de San Cristóbal(Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas) Cuéllar Rodríguez, Ana Sofía; Sánchez Blanco, DoribelThe purpose of the document is to carry out the Solid Waste Management Plan (PGIRS) for the Marbella Reservado complex, located in the town of San Cristóbal in Bogotá. For this purpose, qualitative information was collected from visits to the solid waste rooms of the complex, and was captured in photos and checklists, collaborating with the professional recyclers who work in the complex to obtain quantitative data regarding the amount of usable waste. After collecting all this information and taking into account the regulations for this case, 3 programs are proposed focused on: 1. Infrastructure of solid waste storage rooms; 2. Education and environmental awareness for the residents of the complex; 3. Collaboration with professional recyclers for the collection of usable waste. Likewise, the importance of articulation between the administration of the complex is highlighted for the improvement of the infrastructure of the solid waste storage rooms, which can help improve the way in which solid waste is disposed there, hand in hand with the inhabitants. of the whole by adopting good practices regarding separation at the source and good use of the storage room infrastructure; all this to obtain a good result. The results obtained are also analyzed, since following the proposed programs some modifications were made to one of the storage rooms, but the poor disposition of the inhabitants within it continued to persist. Taking this into account, the things to improve are analyzed and returned. to highlight the importance of the collaboration of the inhabitants of the complex, along with the talks to promote separation at the source and the good use of the storage rooms.Ítem Análisis de viabilidad del uso de Urea como biofertilizante: Una estrategia de manejo ambiental sostenibleMedina Hernández, Marilyn; Sánchez Sánchez, Fernando; Sánchez Sánchez; Fernando [0000-0002-1038-3055]This paper explores the potential of urea, obtained from human urine, as a sustainable alternative to traditional chemical fertilizers in agriculture. The study, carried out in Landázuri, Santander, was based on a mixed research approach involving chemical analysis and farmer surveys. Urine contains essential nutrients such as nitrogen, potassium and phosphates, with the average adult producing 3.88 kg of nitrogen per year. Comparisons with conventional fertilizers suggest that urea can be an effective and environmentally friendly option, without the negative effects associated with chemicals, such as groundwater contamination and greenhouse gas emissions. Farmers showed a favorable attitude towards the use of this biofertilizer, highlighting its feasibility for a more sustainable agriculture. The study included both qualitative and quantitative methods, with a sample of 68 participants, and surveys and field observations were conducted to collect data, which were analyzed using IBM SPSS software. The analysis revealed that urine is composed mainly of water (95%) and various nutrients essential for plant growth (5%), with urea accounting for 46.67% of nitrogen. Other important nutrients found included potassium, phosphates, sodium, chlorides, magnesium, sulfates, creatine and uric acid, all critical for soil health and plant development. Taken together, these findings underscore the potential of urine as a valuable and sustainable resource in agricultural fertilization.Ítem Guía para el protocolo de exhumación restos de cadáveres covid-19 en cementerios patrimoniales de Colombia(Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas) Pava Díaz, Carolayn Lizeth; Parsons Delgado, Astrid Ximena; Parsons Delgado, Astrid Ximena [0000-0002-7315-7469]Four years after the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, in Colombia the stipulated times are beginning to be fulfilled to start the exhumations of the remains that were buried due to the demand that exceeded the capacity of the crematoriums in the country and in this case, in Bogotá, however, the conditions in which these corpses were buried do not allow an exhumation protocol as the one already established in the regulations, therefore it was necessary to carry out this research considering elements such as: the accumulation of gases and leachates, the required personal protection elements, the recognition of corpses by the families and their final disposal. Similarly, and due to the patrimonial and historical character of the Central Cemetery of Bogota, it was considered how the pandemic had managed to turn the gaze towards these spaces and how it is necessary to manage the cemeteries in terms of their conservation, as well as the relationship that can be given with the management of mourning, the resignification of death and the necessary education and training to the whole community about the risks and the state of these bodies in order to carry these mourning to a better end. This document consolidates an integral proposal, which does not intend to replace the official protocols, but to be a tool to develop them and to carry out this procedure in the most efficient way possible, mitigating the existing risks.Ítem Aportes a la consolidación de Eco - Pet en el Barrio la Esmeralda en Bogotá D.C.Mahecha Cuevas, Samir David; Castillo Rincón, Diego Felipe; Espinosa García, HelmutThe Eco - Pet project seeks to improve the management of special waste, specifically the excrement of domestic animals in the Esmeralda Park in the town of Teusaquillo. A case study was conducted to analyze the current conditions of the park, focusing on responsible pet ownership, public health, and excrement management. Tools such as observation, checklists, maps, waste characterization, and photographic records were used for the study, which allowed the identification of environmental problems and their causes. Observation provided a baseline for designing a technological proposal for excrement management, while interaction with the community revealed a lack of knowledge about the consequences of open-air fecalism and the disorganization of neighbors to demand solutions. The analysis concludes that there is a deficiency in the management of the park by the Teusaquillo Local Mayor's Office and a lack of inter-institutional coordination to address this environmental problem. Based on these findings, strategies are proposed that focus on promoting a change in citizen culture towards better environmental management, involving the community, improving infrastructure, and establishing effective control and monitoring to resolve this problem.Ítem Revisión y actualización del Plan de Gestión Integral de Residuos Sólidos y Plan de Saneamiento Básico para los laboratorios de tanatopraxia en la ascensiónMéndez Romero , Diego Alejandro; Parsons Delgado , Astrid Ximena; Parsons Delgado, Astrid Ximena [0000-0002-7315-7469]The funeral services company LA ASCENSIÓN has a Comprehensive Solid Waste Management Plan for its administrative headquarters, but needs to implement a Comprehensive Management Plan for Waste generated in Health Care and other activities (PGIRASA) in its Tanatopraxia laboratories. This includes a basic sanitation plan to ensure a contamination-free environment at funeral homes. To develop the PGIRASA, the waste generated in the laboratories was identified, which includes biosanitary, anatomopathological, sharps and chemical waste. The regulatory investigation indicates that Resolution 1164 of 2002 is applicable, since it regulates the management of hospital and similar waste, defining concepts and procedures for the segregation of waste according to color codes. The Basic Sanitation Plan establishes cleaning and maintenance activities to guarantee a healthy environment, complying with the National Health Code (Law 9 of 1979) and other regulations. It includes programs on cleaning, solid waste management, pest control and drinking water supply, with internal control formats based on Colombian Technical Standard 580 and guidelines from health entities.Ítem Implementación de un plan de manejo ambiental para la empresa depósitos Rodríguez para mitigar impactos de la comercialización y fundición de metales en BogotáPiñeiro Redin, María Alejandra; Castro Rodríguez, Ruben Alejandro; Sánchez Sánchez, Fernando; Sánchez Sánchez, Fernando [0000-0002-1038-3055]The Depositos Rodriguez organization located in the city of Bogotá, has been developing marketing tasks for more than 10 years from the purchase and sale of metals for its smelting (scrap, copper, aluminum) without having environmental programs associated with its organization, such as the contamination of particles and toxic gases derived from these metals, contributing to air pollution, as well as inadequate waste management. For the organization, it is of vital importance to commit to complying with the environment and also with the standards that govern it, taking into account the NTC ISO 14001 of 2015 standard, this implementing an Environmental Management Plan (EMP) established within a system environmental management (EMS).Ítem Cálculo de la huella de carbono en la Sede Tecnológica de la Universidad Distrital Francisco José De Caldas vigencia año 2022 a 2023Espitia Murillo, Angie Vanessa; Parsons Delgado, Astrid Ximena; Parsons Delgado, Astrid Ximena [0000-0002-7315-7469]The carbon footprint becomes a recognized indicator that allows identifying GHG emissions from direct and indirect activities and also focuses on recognizing routes to control, reduce or mitigate emissions into the atmosphere derived from individual and natural consumption results for a variety of reasons. of human processes and activities in the life cycle of goods and services, influencing the quality of life and its development that impact the environment at the particular and general level; considering the responsibility that the University population has in these processes with the development of different activities which as a result have been the main causes of transformation and affectation of the quality of resources, generating negative impacts on the environment. In order to mitigate these environmental impacts, the Francisco José de Calda District University adheres to institutional and district guidelines which conceive the development for measuring the carbon footprint through the recognition of fixed and/or mobile emission sources. In this way, it is important to mention that it is related to the development of academic activities and/or unitary productive processes and the scope of each activity executed within them.Ítem Contenedor multipropósito para el Conjunto Residencial el JardínGarrido Heredia, Tatiana; Contento Pastran, Stephany Alejandra; Bautista Herrera, Hayder Osvaldo; Bautista Herrera, Hayder Osvaldo 0000-0002-4918-6972According to the United Nations Environment Program, about 11.2 billion tons of solid waste are currently generated, 400 million tons of plastic, waste that represents the bulk of highly recyclable materials along with paper, cardboard, glass, metals, electronic waste, among others (UN, 2024). The proper disposal and management of by-products generated by human activities still represents a highly complex challenge for societies, mainly in the third world, since, if we can highlight the participation of the recovery of these materials in places like Europe, where countries like Germany, Switzerland, Spain, among others, exceed 60% of waste, compared to Latin American countries where it generally reaches the worrying figure of 5% (Welle, 2021). In Colombia, the recycling rate is between approximately 12-14%, mainly paper, cardboard, metal and plastic are recovered as waste according to DANE (2019). This low percentage translates into negative effects on the environment, the economy, ecosystems and people's quality of life. In Bogotá, households are a significant source of these indicators, since the industry has chosen to abide by current regulations and the improvement of its economies (MADS, 2022), so residential families are needed as a key object of study in the economic development of waste recovery. There may be multiple factors that contribute to the collective disinterest in the segregation at source of the waste generated, the main ones being behavioral, demographic and cultural, for example, in the Madelena neighborhood, the socioeconomic stratum, the educational level, the customs or habits of the communities, the geographic location, the governance of territories, among others. In the complexes in particular, despite the favorable conditions such as access to public services, infrastructure, dissemination of information, etc., there is still a lack of interest in separating the waste that can be used from the “garbage”, and this situation could be caused by the efficient and organized separation of the waste generated daily. This assumption motivates the environmental project presented in this document and allows us to offer an alternative that aims to mitigate the effects caused by the problem described.Ítem Propuesta de un modelo turístico ambiental comunitario para fomentar el desarrollo en las zonas rurales del municipio del Chaparral-TolimaAcosta Aldana , María Camila; González Vargas , Angie Mildrey; Bautista Herrera, Hayder Osvaldo; Bautista Herrera, Hayder Osvaldo [0000-0002-4918-6972]This research work focuses on generating a community tourism model based on the problem statement of the trails of the municipality in Chaparral Tolima. It aims for the research to participate uniformly; through participatory action, contemplating four components that will allow the members and support facilitators to use these instruments, generating knowledge that could find the tourism design that best suits. In the rural area of the municipality, agricultural activities stand out, which in other places have been sources of agritourism, potentially enhancing activities individually and/or collectively, but have generated significant changes in the community and the economy, extending with agreements from the benefited public and private sectors; it can be beneficial for tourists and local communities, promoting sustainable development, environmental conservation, cultural preservation, and economic growth in rural areas. According to the sources consulted, it is evident how the option of viewing tourism as a good or service offers rural areas support and strengthening to their activities by intervening in the monetary resources perceived by the community.Ítem Análisis de los procesos de gestión ambiental desarrollados en centros de acopio en Pavco Wavin: El caso de Mexichem ColombiaBuitrago Arevalo, Sara Daniela; Cubillos Rios, Maria Jose Tatiana; Parsons Delgado, Astrid Ximena; Parsons Delgado, Astrid Ximena [0000-0002-7315-7469]Hazardous waste is considered a source of risk to the environment and health. This work focuses on the environmental evaluation of the hazardous waste collection centers in the Mexichem Colombia–Pavco Wavin company. To do this, a search for secondary information was carried out, environmental information provided by the company was collected, the temporary storage areas for hazardous waste at each plant were identified, and a systematization of suppliers for disposal and/or recovery of the waste was carried out. Then, the evaluation of compliance with environmental regulations of the temporary hazardous waste storage areas was carried out and the critical points in the temporary hazardous waste storage areas of each plant were identified. Separation at the source is a challenge for each area, there is a lack of knowledge on the subject, containers without any label or color alluding to waste (RESPEL). Hence, activities are proposed to train all personnel, recognize the distribution of areas, and suggest the acquisition of appropriate containers or infrastructure based on the information obtained.Ítem Reforestación del Humedal Santa Ana ubicado en la comuna 1 del municipio de Soacha, CundinamarcaAlzate Niño , Laura Camila; Espinosa García , HelmutThe Santa Ana Wetland in Soacha, a key ecosystem for local biodiversity, has been affected by urbanization and lack of official recognition. Environmental organizations joined forces for its restoration and protection, relying on Law 99 of 1993. The project was developed in three phases: research to identify problems, statistical analysis to establish an environmental baseline, and practical actions such as reforestation and environmental education. These initiatives encouraged community participation, ensuring the long-term sustainability and protection of the wetland.Ítem Banco de datos experimental para el equipo hydrology apparatus p6530 experimentos 6, 7 y 8Feliciano Melo, Diego Felipe; Espinosa García, Helmut; Espinosa García, Helmut [0000-0001-9341-3995]The Hydrology Apparatus P6530 is an equipment which is used for educational practices, is designed to perform small-scale tests that demonstrate basic physical hydrological processes, this equipment has a manual which has the training of the equipment which specifies the description, calibration, adaptation and accessories of the equipment along with the eleven hydrology experiments that have been developed by students of technology in environmental management and public services in the modality of internal internship degree in the environmental modeling laboratory since the supplier did not deliver a database of the expected results of the experiments. The document intends to continue experiments 6, 7 and 8 through the internal internship to be developed in the environmental modeling laboratory of the Faculty of Environment and Natural Resources of the Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas (Bosa Porvenir). These experiments correspond to 6). Dewatering of an excavation site using a curtain wall and groundwater extraction. 7.) Drainage of a reservoir. 8). Hydrology of an island.

For the particular case of the project, it was decided to investigate the case of the municipality of Ubalá, Cundinamarca, Vereda San José, specifically located in “Finca la Esperanza” which is a territory surrounded by multiple water sources from which the owners of the farm and the owners of other nearby lands are supplied with the resource through a hose system, taking into account the work carried out by the authors (Borja Bernabé Crespo & Gómez Espín, 2015) Through which the drinking water supply system through wells was proposed to satisfy the needs of the Community and springs for the Cartagena region which suggests that it is a fairly efficient alternative to meet the needs of the users who require this service, on the other hand we have that in Colombia it is very rare to take care of natural resources such as water resources. (Valencia Medina, 2017.) As the author of the text relates, in Colombia it is common that the measured use of water resources is not taken into account since, as has been seen in “La Plata huila”, the decrease in flow has been largely due to the expansion of the agricultural and livestock frontier, resulting in an increase in pollution, which leads to a decrease in the flow of the few existing springs, in the resolution issued by the Ministry of Social Protection, Ministry of the Environment, Housing and Territorial DevelopmentÍtem Actualización del plan de manejo ambiental en el campo de perforación y extracción de petróleo Castilla-Chichimene en el departamento del metaPulido Sierra, Diego Alejandro; Espinosa Garcia, Helmut; Helmut Espinosa Garcia [0000-0001-9341-3995]The environmental management plan, in the Castilla Chichimene oil drilling and extraction field located in the Castilla la Nueva municipality (Betania, Las Violetas, San Agustín, Turuy, Cacayal, Caño Grande and Sabanas del Rosario villages) in the department of The goal was to define a series of programs and projects aimed at reducing, preventing, controlling, correcting, mitigating or compensating for the negative impacts that the execution of the project may be generating. However, a review was carried out in order to know how well it is being fulfilled and what observations should be made to improve the existing PMA.Ítem Cálculo de la huella de carbono de la sede Palacio de la Merced facultad de artes ASAB Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas 2022-2023(Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas) Diaz Ruiz , Yuliani; Garzón Saldaña, Maira Alejandra; Parsons Delgado, Astrid Ximena; Parsons Delgado, Astrid Ximena [0000-0002-7315-7469]The calculation of the carbon footprint of the Palacio de la Merced headquarters, ASAB Faculty of Arts, of the Francisco José de Caldas District University is a comprehensive process that seeks to quantify and evaluate the environmental impact of the activities carried out. Through this analysis, the greenhouse gas emissions associated with energy consumption, solid waste production, and the daily operation of the institution are examined in detail. This study not only makes it possible to identify the main sources of carbon emissions, but also provides a clear view of the magnitude of the environmental impact generated by the Palacio de la Merced headquarters. In addition to its importance for internal environmental management, the calculation of the carbon footprint also serves as an educational and awareness-raising tool within the university community. By engaging students, faculty and staff in this process, greater awareness is fostered about the interconnection between our actions and the environment, as well as the crucial role we play in mitigating climate change. Ultimately, calculating the carbon footprint of the Palacio de la Merced headquarters is not only an environmental assessment exercise, but also a commitment to sustainability and environmental responsibility. By taking concrete steps to reduce our carbon emissions and promote more sustainable practices, the university demonstrates its leadership in the fight against climate change and its commitment to a greener, more sustainable future.Ítem Actualización del plan institucional de gestión ambiental piga para el Colegio Alfoso Lopez Michelsen (ied)(Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas) Gomez Cubillos, Jeisson Javier; Cutiva Celis, Yuri Mayerly; Sanchez Sanchez, Fernando; Sanchez Sanchez, Fernando [0000-0002-1038-3055]This document contains the update of the Institutional Environmental Management Plan (PIGA) for the Alfonso López Michelsen School, District Educational Institution.
