In this research, the evolution of the oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) and physicochemical parameters such as dissolved oxygen, pH, turbidity, total dissolved solids, electrolytic conductivity, among others, is analyzed with the purpose of predicting the quality of wastewater in situ during a disinfection process with ozone, relating them to microbiological parameters such as biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygen demand (COD), as well as the content of total coliforms and thermotolerant coliforms. These studies were performed on tertiary effluents in the wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) of SEDAPAL in Cieneguilla (Lima, Peru). Within this ozonation process, the ORP results show a particular behavior against the content of thermotolerant coliforms. A mathematical model is proposed to correlate ORP with the content of thermotolerant coliforms (microbial activity), achieving a semiquantitative approach. These ORP measurements could be used as an in situ indicator to predict the quality of wastewater treated with ozone. At ozone dose conditions of 13.33 mg/L and after 30 minutes of ozonation, the ORP consistently rises above 390 mV, achieving thereby acceptable values for the content of thermotolerant coliforms within the maximum permissible limits (MPL) set for effluents of domestic or municipal wastewater treatment plants (according to the Ministry of Environment in Peru), even for initial samples as high as 5,400,000 NMP/100 mL of thermotolerant coliforms before the disinfection process begins.
