This paper assesses a bench-scale carwash wastewater treatment system's removal efficiency based on coagulation-flocculation and a household-type activated carbon filter and water ozonator. For the experiment, the wastewater that went through an oil/water separator (OWS) from a medium-sized carwash facility located in a dense commercial area in Barranquilla, Colombia, was collected. The study evaluates the following parameters: water quality indicators recommended by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and literature related to carwash water reclamation. The treatment results are compared to related regional studies in Latin America and Colombian legislation in force. Experimental results evidence that reclaimed water's characteristics are similar to those of a groundwater source for most analyzed variables, and the system was able to reduce organic matter concentrations considerably. Regarding the organoleptic characteristics, the system eliminated foaming and generated a transparent and odorless product. The coliform test showed that reclaimed water has an average total coliform count of around 5800 MPN/100 ml, which is above the proposed health risk limit per most international standards for water reuse; but as it complies with industrial wastewater and non-food irrigation purposes in Colombia, additional disinfection is recommended depending on the reuse purpose. The results from this research may assist future carwash wastewater reclamation regulations in Colombia and the Latin American region.

The department of Atlántico, Colombia contemplates in its economic activities agriculture and fish farming, sectors that are currently affected by different factors including the phenomenon of El Niño and La Niña, which prevent a lasting harvest to farmers, under this problem arose the need to implement a hybrid aquaponic system in order to ensure food security in the municipality of Polo Nuevo Atlántico, to achieve this it was necessary to consult the needs and technical requirements that contemplates the development of a successful aquaponic system. An irrigation evaluation was carried out to detect and minimize the hazards that could occur in the cultivation and hydroponics. The pilot tests showed expected results such as compliance with the weight and length estimates of the fish biometrics, and the cattle on the farm accepted the hydroponic Green fodder as food. During the development of the project, it was verified that every execution or activity complied with the cleaner production guidelines.
