ESTUDO DE VIABILIDADE ECÔNOMICA PARA APROVEITAMENTO DE ÁGUAS PLUVIAIS NO CENTRO FEDERAL DE EDUCAÇÃO TECNOLÓGICA DE MINAS GERAIS - CEFET - CAMPUS lX

Abstract

This paper intends to report a case study for a rainwater harvesting project proposed to the Federal Center of Technological Education of Minas Gerais - CEFET - Campus lX, Nepomuceno - MG, since the Institute seeks alternatives to reuse the water resources used throughout its built area. The project is justified in seeking to make CEFET a more sustainable institution, reducing the consumption of treated water for activities that do not need it, such as laundering and irrigation, and because it is economically viable in terms of the costs already stipulated. The techniques used to use water resources are based on engineering calculations found in specific literature.
