DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT OF A TECHNOLOGICAL SYSTEM FOR GREY WATER REUSE

Abstract

This work has as purpose "contribute to the decrease of the consumption of water drinking to purposes that not so require". Its objectives are to design, develop and transfer a system not conventional for such purpose; to improve the health and conditions of habitability of sanitary spaces with sustainability. To such end, it proposes are: an strategy of "Participatory action research" as "a social practice of knowledge production that seeks social change seen as a totality, occurs in the very action and contributes to it”; a system that allows to replace the traditional toilet tank and reuse and store water used in toilets to be downloaded in nuclei sanitary toilets. With regard to the results achieved, the work has 2 stages that includes: 1. Developing the theoretical framework; the study of history and analysis of geographical areas of application; the generation of possible solutions for responding to the system; the selection of surpassing proposal; 2. adjustment of the surpassing proposal; preparation of technical documentation; design of your building process; adjustment of its operation, use and maintenance; its materialization; experimentation and evaluation. The conclusions was that this system is "Adaptive" and "affordable" that presents facility construction and installation work; features that make it an "adoptable product" in different types of architectural objects and a "sustainable product" because that makes it possible to the care of the environment.
