Oxidation ponds: Recycling water.

What is it used for?

The lagoons have the following objectives:

1. Remove residual water which causes the organic matter contamination.

2. Eliminate pathogens that pose a serious health hazard.

3. Use their effluent for reuse for other purposes, such as agriculture.

How is the project in financial terms?

There are several ways to design and build oxidation ponds, which in some cases can be very costly in terms of maintenance, cleaning, and continuity, but through basic concepts of chemistry, microbiology, mathematics in the service of the engineering accompanied of hydrological study, have combined different methods which minimize costs and make them more efficient.

Later, you can appreciate the different methods for performing these ponds and as through engineering has become a way not only to improve not only water quality, but also reduce treatment costs and help the environment.
