Abstract

In daily life we use a wide variety of cosmetic and personal hygiene products that are present in homes, from the most basic such as soap to more elaborate products such as masks or exfoliating creams, although they are very useful for In our daily lives we are largely unaware of the impact generated by the different activities to manufacture each one of them; In the cosmetic industry, manufacturing processes are evident where in most of the stages of product development there is generation of both solid and liquid waste, for example non-domestic (industrial) wastewater; For this reason, it is important to highlight that to reduce the impact, companies have adopted more sustainable practices in the medium, short and long term that allow them, first of all, to generate compensation with the environment, as well as, look for new mitigation alternatives in conjunction with new strategies. for the treatment of these waters and at the same time comply with the necessary parameters to reach the last stage of the integral water cycle, the return to the environment. Thyms Colombia is positioned as a prominent entity in the cosmetics industry specialized in the manufacturing of dyes and hair care products. This industry involves the generation of various types of waste throughout the processes, ranging from production to packaging, through quality control and other subprocesses within the plant. Considering the above as a fundamental part of the project, the purpose is to provide operational and administrative support in the WWTP of the company Thyms Colombia, as well as to carry out treatability tests of wastewater with peroxide, with the objective of evaluating and optimizing the processes. of treatment. This approach allows not only to comply with regulatory standards, but also to move towards more sustainable and responsible practices in daily operations.
