Objective: To determine the level of eco-efficiency at the Universidad Nacional de Huancavelica central office.  Methods: Observation and description methods were used; the design used was simple descriptive. The study sample consisted of the six faculties of the central headquarters of the National University of Huancavelica; the data collection form consisted of the eco-efficiency baseline matrix, with the following components: energy, water, waste generation, biological diversity, land use planning, adaptation and/or mitigation of climate change, air quality and soil quality. Results: the average of the indicators used was 0.86, equivalent to 1, which indicates that the level of eco-efficiency is 1; in other words, the level of eco-efficiency at headquarters is medium. Conclusions: the level of eco-efficiency is medium; the main health problems derived from eco-efficiency are: th...

La investigación realizada tuvo como objetivo determinar la relación que existe entre el consumo responsable y la sostenibilidad ambiental en los estudiantes de la Universidad Nacional de Huancavelica en el año 2014, en su sede central en la ciudad universitaria de Paturpama Huancavelica. Se usó el método científico además del método descriptivo y el método hipotético deductivo con un diseño descriptivo correlacional. Se usó cuestionarios de encuesta validados para las variables consumo responsable y sostenibilidad ambiental aplicadas a estudiantes universitarias de la sede central en la ciudad de Huancavelica. Las dimensiones que se analizaron para la variable consumo responsable fueron consumo: etico, ecológico, solidario y crítico y para la variable sostenibilidad ambiental las subdimensiones de la dimension ambiente: biodiversidad, cambio climatico, residuos solidos y r...

Introduction: COVID-19 brought effects at a general level, one of them is in the environment for which its study is necessary to propose solutions to this pandemic. The objective is to determine the effects that COVID-19 has brought to the environment, through a descriptive study and documentary review. Obtaining consequences in the air, soil and water spheres that generate visible impacts on society, the economy and mainly on the environment. In conclusion, there are positive environmental effects, such as the improvement of air quality; and negative, such as the high contamination by medical and domestic waste, the latter being the most alarming. To this end, reflections and proposals for measures to counteract them are proposed.

In this research removal efficiency was evaluated of organic pollutants of a biofilm and phytoremediation integrated system for municipal wastewater treatment in Huancavelica. A pilot plant consisting of a settler was installed that also retained oils and fats, a biological filter using as support material the calcareous stuff and a phytoremediation process with Nasturtium officinale (watercress) The hydraulic retention time was 5.5 hours and the flowrate of 0.011 L s -1, the evaluation was made of the proper functioning of processes by monitoring control parameters. The pollutant removal efficiency was determined by Student's "t" test (p <0.05). An average pH value of 7.57 and a temperature of 12.07 ° C were obtained, subsequently the measurement of BOD5 was initiated, obtaining maximum effluent values of 131 ppm and minimum values of 45 ppm and a removal efficiency of 44.8% was obt...

La energía eólica es una forma de energía limpia o renovable producida a partir del viento, es decir, una energía cinética producida por el efecto de las corrientes de aire. La investigación tuvo como objetivo analizar la cantidad de energía eléctrica que se genera a partir del potencial eólico en la región de Huancavelica. El instrumento que se utilizó fue la ficha de registro de datos. El análisis se realizó en cinco distritos de la región; para el análisis inferencial se usó la prueba de Wilcoxon con p < 0.05 que indica que la velocidad del viento es superior a 2 m/s. Los datos de velocidad del viento que fueron registrados por las estaciones meteorológicas en la región Huancavelica durante el año 2017 son adecuados para la implementación de aerogeneradores de baja potencia (70 KWh/d), de la misma forma se obtuvo...

The objective of the research was to apply the methodology for the determination of the ICA-PE water quality index in the Escalera river of the Huachocolpa district in the periods of 2015 and 2018, the samplings carried out were given 2 points (REsca1 and REsca2), For data collection, it was based on mathematical simulation, documentary analysis and registration, at the sampling points the concentrations of aluminum, arsenic, cadmium, copper, iron, manganese, lead and zinc were determined, these parameters exceeded the environmental quality standards. Water (ECA-AGUA) was later categorized according to the ICA-PE water quality index, of which for 2015 it was of good quality obtaining a value of 73.14 and for 2018 its quality decreased to regular reaching a value of 61.85 . The results obtained show that the quality of water is decreasing in its path that runs through the Escalera river, ...

The present study was carried out in the city of Pampas, located at 3276 meters above sea level. southwest of the province of Tayacaja, department of Huancavelica during the period April to December 2022, with the objective of determining the quality of water for human consumption through physicochemical and microbiological parameters of the city of Pampas-Tayacaja. The study is of an applied type, descriptive and transectional level, it involved an evaluation as it is presented in reality, that is, without manipulation of variables. At the six sampling stations, physical, chemical and microbiological parameters were evaluated taking as reference the water quality regulation for human consumption D.S. N° 031-2010-SA of the Ministry of Health and the National Environmental Quality Standards for Water DS.N° 004-2017-MINAN, category 1. The results demonstrate that the physicochemical and ...
