Globally, day-to-day sources of surface water resources endowed with qualities suitable for human consumption decrease resulting in conditions affecting communities dependent on these sources of this precious resource. Given the current situation, the most viable option to favor isolated or remote communities is through the construction of small potable water treatment plants (PTAP's) with fast and systematized design modules that allow obtaining the specifications for their construction and operation in a safe and sustainable way over time complying with SDG 6 (Agenda 2030, UN). Within this context, the design of systems for obtaining potable water becomes a valuable tool that allows the rapid configuration of this type of infrastructure to build efficient and completely sustainable systems in communities with low water resources. Currently, the teaching of this type of concepts and fun...

Partial depurated domestic wastewater and evacuated of conventional Treatment Plant in our city to be used as water source for irrigation of large areas of crop and animal drinking was purified by electrocoagulation (EC) using micro-scale in laboratory obtaining encouraging results of final decontamination. The initial levels of physical, chemical and microbiological contamination of raw samples were reduced significantly without reaching the Estandares Nacionales de Calida Ambiental of water Category III described in DS N° 002-2008-MINAM because progressive alkalinization and heating suffering the water samples during this treatment; however, it was demostrated that the application of the EC allows the significant reduction of the electrical conductivity, total dissolved solids, oxygen demand expressed as BOD5 and COD and the content in total coliforms and the significant inc...
