Resumen
Drinking water or water for human consumption is defined as that which has physical, chemical and microbiological characteristics suitable for human consumption, in other words, it is that which, when consumed by humans, does not alter their state of health; For a volume of water to be drinkable, it must undergo a rigorous treatment called purification, and this process depends and will vary according to the initial characteristics of the water and what are the characteristics and concentrations of substances that it must have according to current regulations. In Colombia, there are different standards that apply to the drinking water sector, which dictate from the characteristics of the structures where the water is treated, to the parameters and values that must be met in each of them; This is why, through the development of a general diagnosis of the operation of the San Francisco de Asís drinking water treatment plant (PTAP), located in the municipality of Calamar, in the department of Guaviare, it is intended to demonstrate the current state of the plant and processes applied in the place, in addition, taking into account what is required in Colombian regulations, as is the case of resolution 2115 of 2007, monitoring and analysis of the processed water will be carried out to assess whether or not this plant complies with the guidelines established in the evaluation instruments to guarantee water quality, such as the IRCA (Water Quality Risk Index) and the IRABAm (Municipal Risk Index for Water Supply), which through numerical scores give us as a result whether or not the plant presents a risk to human health taking into account the characteristics of the water, some characteristics of the plant and the continuity of the service. Finally, once the diagnosis and general analysis of the plant has been carried out, these results will be presented to the service unit together with some proposed solutions to the different deficiencies and/or shortcomings in the plant, with the aim of improving the quality of the service and optimizing the operation of the plant in general.
