• Abstract:

  This research on the problem of wastewater and the challenge of building a treatment plant in the municipality of San Quintín, B.C. Mexico, was carried out with the purpose of documenting the impact and challenges to overcome to promote the development of a region that has long been stressed by excessive water use and to propose the installation of a wastewater treatment plant ( WWTP) that helps minimize this stress. Due to the large number of inhabitants found in urban centers and which is constantly growing, there is an urgent need, on the part of the government, to begin planning for a project that provides a solution to the problem of water sanitation.
