The use of water at Comandante Ferraz Antarctic Station

ABSTRACT

The Brazilian Antarctic Program has been developing technological studies in order to amplify the Comandante Ferraz Antarctic Station (EACF) environmental performance, with the optimization of constructive actions and also the complementary systems, such as water supplying, sanitary drain system, solid residues management, air quality evaluation, electricity management and others.

In this context, the current work is the development of a diagnosis about the use of water at EACF and the proposal of policies for the Water Conservation Program (PCA) implantation, aiming to reduce the resource waste and consequently to reduce the production of sanitary drain.
