Propuesta para el aprovechamiento de los biosólidos producidos en la planta de tratamiento de aguas residuales en Madrid - Cundinamarca, “Aguas La Prosperidad S.A.S.” alternativa desde el punto de vista microbiológico

Abstract

The purified sludge or biosolids generated in a wastewater treatment plant often present difficulties in terms of management and disposal, so alternatives have been generated for its use, where it is reincorporated into various processes, many of them around the recovery of soil, use as compost, fertilizer or energy generation from these biosolids. But in order to be involved in these processes, the sludge must comply with chemical, physical and microbiological parameters. For the case study, a microbiological characterization of the sludge from a WTP in Madrid - Cundinamarca was carried out, in order to propose two alternatives of use from the microbiological point of view, taking into account the regulations (decreto 1287 de 2014), the category within this standard and the information collected. A cost/benefit study was conducted to determine which alternative generates greater profitability and viability. And thus determine the proposal for the use of biosolids generated at the WTP located in Madrid - Cundinamarca, from the microbiological point of view.
