Abstract
Thanks to the extensive knowledge that we have at Empresas Públicas de Medellin, about the wastewater problem r in Aburrá Valley, La Doctora basin located in the municipality of Sabaneta - Antioquia was chosen as a particular study area for the application of pressure areas due to discharges (charge and flow volumes). The basin is described as a space in which special characteristics coexist as follows: a high area (rural), an intermediate area (combined between current homes and new development of these, plus an industrial trade), and finally, a low area, with high diverse industrial activity. With this research, it was possible to differentiate special areas associated with components of pressure by the resource and volume of wastewater discharge, which allowed proposing three different sanitary districts. The first one for domestic wastewater (DS-ARD), the second one for water combined wastewater (DS ARD-ARnD), and the third one, for non-domestic wastewater (DS ARnD). The study required the application of the EPM service operator's information, statistical tools, correlation matrices for flow and pollutant load, self-declaration information for discharges, field sampling, and the use of ArcGIS software. It is expected that this tool, which has a broad statistical component, can be adopted by environmental entities to improve management, planning and serve as an alternative to decentralized treatment of wastewater.
