Keywords: Water treatment. IQETA. Bovine slaughter.
In the bovine slaughtering and slaughterhouse industry, water has a high consumption, as it is used for several purposes including the Legislation of Sanitary Hygiene patterns; being applied both in washing, sterilization and building-cleaning activities as well as for carcasses, viscera and by-products. Memorandum No 105/2018 of the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Food Supply (MAPA) sets the frequency and the ways of monitoring the water quality to verify its potability in production areas. In this context, this dissertation aims to evaluate the operational management of a conventional full-cycle Water Treatment Plant, located in a slaughterhouse and bovine refrigerator; covering from the quality of raw water, the ETA Project parameters accordingly with NBR 12.216, the Water Station Quality – IQETA, study of the type and dosage of coagulant and the treatment of the quality of treated water to the potability Ordinance GM/MS No 888/2021. For this purpose, physico-chemical and bacteriological analyses will be carried out on raw and treated water, as well as a field survey of the unities that make up ETA for identification of hydraulic designs and operation parameters and clotting assays in JarTest equipment. It is expected with it to identify measures that can improve ETA operational management that supplies an industry, so that the produced water meets the standards required by the Ministry of Health.
