Management optimization in Thermal complex through water reuse

Description

Water reuse involves the concept of the exploitation of a previously used water, for a new, beneficial purpose. Actually, in Uruguay, thermal water is just utilised for balneological purposes, in this paper is proposed the water reuse taking the excess of used swimming pool water, and using it for heating and greenhouse irrigation, and australian lobster breeding. An important aspect of sustainable thermal water management is the protection of the exploted thermal water resources, so water reuse plays an important role in water resource, and ecosystem management, because it reduces the volume discharged and also reduces the risk of thermal pollution

Abstract (Spanish)

El reuso del agua involucra el concepto de explotacion de un agua usada previamente, para un nuevo y benefico proposito. En la actualidad, en Uruguay, el agua termal es solamente utilizada para fines balneologicos; en este trabajo se propone el reuso del agua termal, tomando el exceso de agua usada en las piscinas, para fines de riego y calefaccion de invernaculos y para la cria de langostas australianas. Un aspecto importante de la gestion sustentable del agua termal es la proteccion de su explotacion, por lo tanto el reuso juega un papel muy importante en la gestion del recurso hidrico y de los ecosistemas, ya que reduce el volumen descargado al sistema y tambien el riesgo de contaminacion termal
