ABSTRACT e INTRODUCCION
This research was carried out in order to know the efficiency of an alternative system for
wastewater treatment from the dairy industry, for the development of this study synthetic
wastewater was used that was subjected to an electrochemical process, in order to observe and
analyze the effect of this in certain biological properties of water such as the reduction of chemical
oxygen demand (COD), physical properties such as conductivity, chemical properties such as PH,
hardness and concentration of ammoniacal N2 and the effect over time of operation. Two support
electrolytes, ammonium sulfate and a combination of two salts (ammonium sulfate-NaCl) were
evaluated.
This study determined the most convenient variables for the electrochemical treatment,
evaluating the material and the combination of the electrodes, the voltage potential and the
working current, the distance between the electrodes, the optimal time of operation, the
evaluation of different supporting electrolytes. and evaluation of milk concentrations; the main
results were that the ideal combination was with Al-Fe electrodes, connected in parallel using
aluminum as sacrificial anode and iron as cathode, with electrode distance of 2 cm and treatment
time of 60 minutes.
From the evaluation of support electrolytes, better results were observed using the combination
of the two salts with a ratio [ 〖Cl〗 ^ -] / [〖SO_4〗 ^ -] of 0.83, because water clarification is
evident at a shorter time at approximately 40 minutes and the COD in 60 minutes, 44% is obtained
in removal, also 380 mA current intensity was obtained, which indicates that it guarantees the
passage of current in an easy and increasing way, with the Established operating conditions,
combination of Al-Fe electrodes, electrode distance 2cm, voltage potential 3V and a cell volume of
600ml. Unlike the first case of study, the highest percentage of removal was at 90 minutes with
44%, at certain conditions of voltage potential of 5V, equal distance and combination of electrodes
and time of 90 minutes. The treatment is perceived as a good alternative process where the Al
concentrations are very low, the ammoniacal N2 tends to disappear in time and the COD
decreases, in addition there is a good effectiveness of the conductivity, favoring the consumption
of energy.
INTRODUCCION
En nuestras manos esta evitar la contaminación de los mares, ríos y océanos y contribuir con el
cuidado del medio ambiente, con el fin de preservarlo es necesario poner en marcha actividades
de concientización y nuevas tecnologías de tratamiento para conservar el preciado líquido, como
bien se sabe mas del 70% de la superficie terrestre es agua, de esta casi el 97% es agua salada, se
indica que el 2% se encuentra en glaciares y en los polos quedando un 1% válida para el consumo
humano, Pero la misma humanidad se ha encargado de acabarla, sea el sector industrial con
derrames de petróleo o deposición de productos químicos o arrojamiento de basuras por parte del
sector urbano. Por tal razón de peso, se considera aportar a través de la ciencia investigaciones
para reparar este daño ambiental.
