Resumo: | Population growth and negative man-made environmental impacts on nature accelerate the reduction of water availability in certain regions. In this context, the reuse of treated sewage is a potential alternative, especially for agricultural activities. The municipality of Arapiraca, located in northeastern Brazil, stands out for its agricultural production, specifically in the Bananeiras pole, in its countrifields zone. Despite being inserted in a region of sub-humid tropical climate, the municipality has a picture of water scarcity. In this sense, the reuse of treated sewage may be a way of mitigating water scarcity and promoting agriculture in this locality. With the implementation of the municipality's basic sanitation system, this study aims to suggest a sustainable disposal for the planned Sewage Treatment Plant (STP). Thus, the potential for agricultural reuse of sewage treated at the STP was evaluated as a source of irrigation for farmers around that location, verifying compliance with the OMS, USEPA and PROSAB indexes. The obtained results were positive considering that the treated effluent, theoretically analyzed and based on the state of the art, depending on the efficiency level acquired during the treatment, met the analyzed parameters and the recommendations of the regulatory agencies that guide this theme. |

En este contexto, la reutilización de las aguas residuales tratadas es una alternativa potencial, especialmente para las actividades agrícolas. El municipio de Arapiraca, ubicado en el noreste de Brasil, destaca por su producción agrícola, específicamente en el polo Bananeiras, en su zona rural. A pesar de estar inserto en una región de clima tropical subhúmedo, el municipio tiene una imagen de escasez de agua. En este sentido, la reutilización de las aguas residuales tratadas puede ser una forma de mitigar la escasez de agua y promover la agricultura en esta localidad. Con la implementación del sistema de saneamiento básico de la municipalidad, este estudio apunta a sugerir una disposición sostenible para la Planta de Tratamiento de Aguas Residuales (TAR) planificadaPor lo tanto, se evaluó el potencial de reutilización agrícola de las aguas residuales tratadas en la TAR como fuente de riego para los agricultores de esa ubicación, verificando el cumplimiento de los índices de la OMS, USEPA y PROSAB.. Los resultados obtenidos fueron positivos considerando que el efluente tratado, teóricamente analizado y basado en el estado del arte, dependiendo del nivel de eficiencia adquirido durante el tratamiento, cumplió con los parámetros analizados y las recomendaciones de las agencias reguladoras que guían este tema.O crescimento populacional e os impactos ambientais negativos produzidos pelo homem na natureza aceleram a redução da disponibilidade de água em determinadas regiões. Neste contexto, o reuso do esgoto tratado é uma alternativa potencial, principalmente para as atividades agrícolas. O município de Arapiraca, localizado no nordeste brasileiro, possui destaque por sua produção agrícola, especificamente no polo Bananeiras, em sua zona rural. Apesar de estar inserido em uma região de clima tropical sub-úmido, o município apresenta um quadro de escassez hídrica. Nesse sentido, o reuso do esgoto tratado poderá ser uma forma de mitigação da escassez da água e o fomento da agricultura nesta localidade. Com a implantação do sistema de saneamento básico do município, o presente estudo objetiva sugerir um descarte sustentável para a Estação de Tratamento do Esgoto (ETE) planejada. Assim, foi avaliado o potencial do reuso agrícola do esgoto tratado na ETE, como fonte de irrigação para os agricultores no entorno daquela localidade, verificando o atendimento aos índices da OMS, USEPA e PROSAB. Os resultados obtidos foram positivos tendo em vista que o efluente tratado, analisado teoricamente e baseado no estado da arte, a depender do nível de eficiência adquirida ao longo do tratamento, atendeu os parâmetros analisados e as recomendações das agências regulamentadoras que norteiam este tema.Research, Society and Development2020-05-15info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/399010.33448/rsd-v9i7.3990Research, Society and Development; Vol. 9 No. 7; e338973990Research, Society and Development; Vol. 9 Núm. 7; e338973990Research, Society and Development; v. 9 n. 7; e3389739902525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/3990/3259Copyright (c) 2020 Ewerthon José Correia de Oliveira, Antonio Oliveira Neto, Jeisiane Isabella da Silva Alexandre, Vitor Hugo de Oliveira Barros, José Martins de França Neto, Lívia Maria Alves Lino Acioly de Carvalhoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessOliveira, Ewerthon José Corrêa deOliveira Netto, AntonioAlexandre, Jeisiane Isabella da SilvaBarros, Vitor Hugo de OliveiraFrança Neto, José Martins deCarvalho, Lívia Maria Alves Lino Acioly de2020-08-20T18:05:03Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/3990Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:28:00.025895Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false |
