Abstract

The current global context brings a very relevant discussion on the issues of environmental pollution and the abundance of water on Planet Earth. The geographical distribution of water resources reaches alarming levels and generates discomfort and concern in the population. The present study had as objectives to compare the results of crude and treated water analysis in the years 2006 to 2016. To verify the efficiency of the conventional water treatment seasonality in the influence of the raw water quality. Data were obtained from the local Water Treatment Station of CORSAN. A total of 160,986 analysis results were entered in laboratory controls completed during the period studied. These data were typed in Excel and compiled into the RStudio program to obtain correlations between the different control parameters required by current legislation. The results showed that there was an efficient planning in the design of ETA. Satisfactory results were found. It was also observed that seasonality directly influences the quality of raw water.
