“Diseño de la celda de tratamiento de los residuos sólidos del relleno sanitario del Cantón Lago Agrio”

Abstract

The objective of this study was to cant out the sizing and design of the cell for the final disposat of solid waste in the sanitary landfill of the Lago Agrio canton. The cell's capaeity was designed for a period of useftil life between 1.5-2 years, depending .on the operation with which the available spaee is optimized. The site diagnosis was carried out using qualitative and quantitative analysis methods in the different phases, and the sanitary landfill was visited to verify the state visually. A per capita production (Ppc) of 0.44 kg/pop./day/ was determined; important for sizing and future projections resulting in that for the year A2020, the determined dimensions were 166 m long by 85 m wide and 8 m deep; These dimensions wei’e reached through the calculations made with the data of the weights of the waste about one year, avoiding that the leachates that are generated from the decornposition of the waste cause contamination and all are prosecuted towards the treatment system. It is recommended that the Autonomous Decentralized Municipal Government of Lago Agrio continue with the cell implementation for the proper manageinent of solid waste, which guarantees an environinentally friendly landfill operation, redueing the negative impacts caused by waste inanagement. Urban solids in compliance with environmental regulations and the Management Plan approved in Environmental License No. 474 of the Lago Agrio Canton Sanitary Landfill project.
