Ítem Guías didácticas para la operación de la Turbina Francis en el laboratorio de servicios públicos(Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas) Hernández Ramos, Andrea Katherine; Cruz Molina, Jeisson Daniel; Espinosa García, Helmut; Espinosa García, Helmut [0000-0001-9341-3995]The generation of hydraulic energy represents one of the most sustainable and efficient ways to meet current energy demands. In this context, the Francis turbine plays a fundamental role. At the Public Services Laboratory of the Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas, the Pump and Turbine Bench (BBT) TQ MFP101 is an essential resource for technical training, although its use has been limited by the lack of structured didactic material. This project arises in response to this issue, identified through the absence of pedagogical guides that clearly orient students in the operation of the Francis turbine. This deficiency has limited students' ability to apply theoretical concepts, restricting the development of practical competencies and affecting the efficient use of the laboratory as a formative tool. The proposed solution consisted of designing and developing didactic guides to establish safe and effective operating protocols, based on equipment characterization and the implementation of structured experimental practices. These practices included the analysis of variables such as speed, torque, and pressure, according to different guide vane openings. The results showed a significant improvement in students' understanding and management of the turbine. In conclusion, this project not only provides a concrete educational tool but also strengthens technical training in the field of renewable energy.Ítem Apoyo en gestión y aprovechamiento de residuos en la subdirección del Departamento de Prosperidad Social con énfasis en certificación basura cero(Universidad Distrital Francisco Jose de Caldas) Páez Avila, Nicolás; Sánchez Sánchez, Fernando; Sánchez Sánchez, Fernando [0000-0002-1038-3055]The purpose of this research is to analyze the role of the Administrative Department for Social Prosperity in the formulation and implementation of public policies aimed at the care of victims of violence, the inclusion of vulnerable groups, and their social and economic reintegration; as well as to highlight the actions taken within the framework of the internship to strengthen institutional commitment to environmental sustainability.

This growth attracts both local residents looking for job opportunities and people from other regions looking for a better quality of life. However, this population increase also brings with it an increase in environmental pollution, affecting the air, water, soil, fauna and flora. Despite being an almost inevitable challenge, it is crucial to implement preventive, mitigation and control measures for this pollution. Solid waste in the city, as in the entire country, continues to increase at the same rate as population growth. According to data from the Mayor's Office of Bogotá (2022), approximately 7,500 tons of waste are generated daily, of which only 16% is reused. The inadequate management of this waste negatively impacts natural resources and represents a risk to the health of inhabitants. To address these challenges, the "District Development Plan 'A New Social and Environmental Contract for 21st Century Bogotá'" establishes 5 purposes and 30 city achievements aimed at meeting the Sustainable Development Goals for the year 2030. Within these objectives, the District Secretariat of the Environment is committed to the goal of controlling the proper disposal of 32,000,000 tons of Construction and Demolition Waste. In this context, the Subdirectorate of Environmental Control for the Public Sector (SCASP) of the SDA carries out evaluation, control and monitoring activities for the proper disposal and use of Construction and Demolition Waste (CDW) generated by industrial, construction, and public and private service activities in Bogotá D.C. The main objective of this monograph is to apply support strategies in the processes associated with the management of CDW, thus contributing to the environmental authority of the Capital District. As a result of this research, both professional and personal growth is expected by applying the knowledge acquired in the classroom and advancing in the FOREST processes related to the monthly reports of the RCD generators.Ítem Análisis del impacto social y ambiental de los programas poscunsumo en Bogotá(Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas) Valera Rodríguez, Lewin David; Escalante Espinosa, Houstin Stik; Sánchez Cuartas, MartinPost-consumer programs in Bogotá seek to properly manage waste products that, due to their composition, can generate negative impacts on the environment and public health. These include batteries, expired medicines, used oils, electrical and electronic devices, tires and pesticide containers. From an environmental perspective, these programs have allowed the reduction of soil, water and air pollution, avoiding the inappropriate disposal of hazardous waste. In addition, they promote the circular economy by promoting recycling and the recovery of valuable materials. Regarding social impact, they have generated environmental awareness among citizens and promoted the participation of different actors, such as companies, consumers and environmental authorities. They have also promoted green employment, especially in recycling and waste management sectors. However, the analysis reveals challenges such as low coverage, lack of incentives for the end user and limitations in infrastructure for the collection and treatment of waste. It is recommended to strengthen regulation, improve the accessibility of collection points and increase awareness campaigns to maximize the effectiveness of these programs.Ítem Elaboración de un PGIRS para la empresa Artisano SAS.(Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas) Murcia Sánchez, Kevin Daniel; Parsons Delgado, Astrid Ximena; Parsons Delgado, Astrid Ximena [0000-0002-7315-7469]Formulation and development of a Solid Waste Management Plan for a company in the food manufacturing sector, called Artisano SAS.

However, poor water management in the city has also played a significant role. For instance, potable water is still used for cleaning homes and buildings, flushing toilets, and washing vehicles, instead of using rainwater for these purposes. Fontibón, where Villemar El Carmen School is located, is one of the most flood-prone areas due to its flat geography, low slopes, and limited drainage capacity. In response, we propose designing a rainwater harvesting system to supply toilet flushing on the first floor, taking advantage of the area's frequent rainfall. The project will involve designing a hydraulic system for rainwater collection and reuse at the school’s “Campus C,” aiming to demonstrate the benefits of sustainability, source conservation, and reduced water demand. The design will start with roof area calculations and historical rainfall analysis to determine the maximum flow. After comparing gravity-based and pumped distribution systems, a pump system will be chosen, as it better suits the school’s structure. The final design will be presented in AutoCAD drawings. Additionally, an educational booklet will be developed to explain the SCALL system to students.Ítem Energía solar para el sector rural: estudio de caso en el predio ubicado en la vía S/N SN B50 Vereda Burila Rural Caicedonia, Valle del Cauca, Colombia(Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas) Bravo Díaz, Bella Fernanda; Ladino Peralta, Rafael Eduardo; Ladino Peralta, Rafael Eduardo [0009-0009-5932-2825]This project is set in rural Colombia, emphasizing that limited access to reliable electricity represents a persistent challenge, especially in remote areas such as the Burila district in the municipality of Caicedonia, Valle del Cauca. Therefore, it focuses on designing and evaluating a photovoltaic system that can sustainably and efficiently meet the energy demands of a home located in this area, using the specialized software PV*Sol premium 2025 as a technical and economic analysis tool.
