Avaliação da ETE Jabotiana para atendimento do Plano Municipal de Saneamento Básico de Aracaju

Abstract

The urbanization process can lead to an accelerated deterioration of water bodies, which reduces the population’s standard of living. In order to better manage public resources and reduce the deficiency in sanitation services, a good strategy is the Municipal Basic Sanitation Plan (PMSB), which, in the case of Aracaju, was implemented in December 17, 2017 by the Law No. 4,973. So, this work pursued to evaluate if the project flow rate of the Jabotiana WWTP meets the values fixed in the Aracaju plan. To achieve this, the Executive Project of Jabotiana WWTP and the Municipal Basic Sanitation Plan of Aracaju were analyzed to compare the data. It was found that the flow rate capacity expected for the plant is lower than the capacity predicted in the PMSB. However, when the flow rate capacity of the Jabotiana WWTP is added to the capacity of the other sewage treatment plants in Aracaju, the value obtained is higher than the sewage flow rate collection demanded by Aracaju population. Therefore, the construction of the Jabotiana WWTP will be enough to comply with the Municipal Plan, as long as the other treatment plants meet the flow rate progression schedule, and its design parameters obey the legislation, but the creation of new environmental education actions is necessary, as well as the strengthening of the existing ones, so the planned environmental education program is fully met.
