Análisis cuantitativo de la cantidad de cloro antes y después de la cisterna en 5 sectores de la ciudad de Guayaquil.

Abstract

In the following titration work, a quantitative analysis of chlorine is presented, carried out in 5 sectors of the city of Guayaquil, with the main objective of determining if the use of the cistern affects chlorine levels. For this, samples were taken of the water that arrives in the cisterns and the water that reaches the homes, in order to have a more globalized environment of the chlorine consumed in these sectors. The samples were used in the DPD method test to determine the existing residual free chlorine. The results obtained were compared with the Ecuadorian Technical Standard INEN 1108. The first chapter describes the environment that Guayaquil has in terms of the purification processes that are carried out, the general objective and the specific objectives of this research work are presented. The second chapter establishes the theoretical framework in which all the different terms related to the research topic are defined. The third chapter contains the methodolo gy used during the performance of the DPD method tests. Fourth Chapter presents an analysis of the results obtained from the tests carried out for each sector, comparing them with the limits established in norm INEN 1108. In addition, the information obtained from the surveys were about the satisfaction of the residents about the service is presented of drinking water they receive.
