ROMERO LOPEZ, Teresita  and  MONTANO RIVERO, Eddimara. Water consumption evaluation in productive labors of Sancti Spíritus fishing industry. RIHA [online]. 2015, vol.36, n.1, pp.31-44. ISSN 1680-0338.

Fish processing requires a large water quantity, generating significant volumes of polluted water. Because of this study, there were detected three fundamental halls in INDUPIR fishing industry: shaped, export funds and scales, with water consumption of 7, 36 and 72 m³/d respectively. In the latter it was determined the water consumption for 15 active workers belonging to the production line, quantifying time, volume and water consumption per worker and identifying the minimum consumption required for processing fish. Finally, organizational technical measures were identified with the aim to ensure rational use of water through its quantification, planning and administration, recommending the implementation of proposed measures in the paper, extending them to other similar institutions in the country.

Keywords : water consumption; evaluation; management; industry; fish.
