Sistema de compostaje para el aprovechamiento de residuos sólidos orgánicos en el municipio de La Peña Cundinamarca

Abstract

The generation of solid waste grows as the population grows, its incorrect management generates an impact on the soil, water and air resources, as well as the increase of health problems due to the proliferation of disease-transmitting vectors (Gómez, 2000). The technical and financial feasibility is presented for the design of a composting system that allows the management of domestic and agricultural organic solid waste (bagasse), obtaining as final product fertilizer which can be commercialized in the municipality of La Peña Cundinamarca. Engineering project management tools are used in the development of the study; primary and secondary information is collected, qualitative and quantitative, which lead to determine demand, supply, distribution channels and strategies. The process is designed and the attributes of the product to be marketed are established. Finally, the viability of developing this project is evaluated from the financial economic field.
