Instrumento de avaliação do método de círculo de bananeiras para o tratamento de efluentes domésticos

Abstract

Water scarcity causes a growing problem that is the lack of basic sanitation, due to the accelerated and disorderly increase of the population. The Banana Tree Circle is implemented mainly in places where there is a shortage of sanitary sewage services, causing water waste to be minimized. The system consists of building a ditch of different sizes, inside which pieces of wood, tree trunk and dry leaves are placed, and around which banana trees are planted. Thus, the present work aimed to point out a tool to evaluate the efficiency of the banana circle method as a possible low-cost alternative for the treatment of domestic effluents, also showing the steps to implement the system in order to indicate the likely benefits generated by using it. The events observed in this work are related to the planting and implantation of the banana tree circle, in the region of Corrente in Piauí, noting its possible advantages and disadvantages, in addition to evaluating the feasibility of this method as a system that reduces the impacts caused by bad disposition. of domestic effluents. However, after the implementation of the system, it was possible to evaluate the macroscopic indicators, where positive points were observed with the use of the method, which led to a significant improvement in the place
