Econômica da Utilização para Fins não Potáveis em
uma Residência na Região Urbana de Manaus - AM | | Author Name : | | | VICTOR DE ANDRADE LEITE, CHARLES RIBEIRO DE BRITO | | Publisher : | | | Bridge Center | | Article URL : |  | | | Abstract : | | | The subject of water resources, which is fundamental to society,
is very much discussed. Resources that are imperative for life on earth,
and also essential for human activities to a large extent. In prehistory,
the water was collected through the water cups or the rain because they
were nomadic, so that there was no need for drainage works or water
treatment plants for the separation of the wastes found there. The
objective was to evaluate the economic potential of rainwater through
the surface of roofs, known as gutter and designed for a single - family
dwelling of 63.25 m² located in Santos Dumont, Manaus - AM. With
data from the Manaus rain station (OMM: 82331) obtained from the
Meteorological Data Bank, for Teaching and Research (BDMEP),
through the National Institute of Meteorology (INMET, 2019), the
gutter was dimensioned according to NBR 10844/89 and the reservoir
sized by the English practical method. In the rainy season, from
December to April, the residence studied can reach from 90% to 100%
of rainwater harvesting for non-potable purposes, in the consumption
range of 35 m³ per month, 45% of which is considered non-potable. The
financial savings in drinking water consumption for the residence was
R$ 1324,44 per year.
