Diseño del sistema de rutas de recolección de desechos sólidos no peligrosos para el consorcio Tena limpio del cantón Tena, provincia de Napo

Abstract

The objective of this research work was to design a system of non-hazardous solid waste collection routes for Tena canton, considering the current situation and the technical guidelines for the use of technological tools (GIS). To obtain information, surveys, an observation sheet, and an interview were used, which allowed obtaining information from the garbage collection service; with this, it was possible to determine that the quality of the service is located at a medium level with 32%. For the analysis of routes, the Sedesol Model "Generation, Collection and Transfer of Solid Waste" was used, which made it easier to determine the productive and unproductive routes, this achieving the optimization of unproductive routes by assigning working hours to each route. Finally, it can be concluded that the use of geographic information systems allows the analysis and design of collection routes that let them be optimized and kept updated. It is also recommended that the application of this project should involve the citizens and all officials in the improvement of solid waste collection routes in Tena canton.
