In various parts of Peru, water is a scarce resource, where demand exceeds supply and this leads to competition for access to this resource for use in different sectors, with the construction sector being the main consumer. For this reason, there is research that seeks other alternative sources of water resources in order to rationalize its use. In the world, 80% of wastewater is discharged into the environment without adequate treatment. In Peru, 68% of wastewater does not receive any type of treatment, generating problems for public health and the environment. Based on this, the present study proposes to convert treated wastewater (ART) into an alternative source of water resources, making medium to high-strength concrete using ART (for water/cement ratios of 0.55, 0.50 and 0.45) and determining the feasibility of its use by means of experimental trials. In addition, the variation of concrete properties in the fresh and hardened state was evaluated for the standard concrete made with potable water, the concrete made with 100% ART, and the concrete made with 50% ART and 50% potable water. Regarding the properties of fresh concrete, the 50% ART and 100% ART concretes presented higher slump and exudation, with respect to the standard concrete, and did not show any variation in air content and unit weight. Regarding the setting time, the concrete with 100% ART presents higher values and the concrete with 50% ART, slightly higher values compared to the standard concrete, establishing slightly retarding behaviors, product of the organic matter of the ART due to concentrations higher than the Maximum Permissible Limits. The variation of the compressive strength of the concrete with 50% ART and 100% ART is less than 5% and the variation of the diametral compressive strength is on average less than 7% with respect to the standard concrete, and as the w/c ratio is reduced, less variation is observed. Finally, a treatment process was carried out to reduce the concentrations of organic matter and sediments by means of the filtration process, obtaining filtered water (AF) with a lower concentration of organic matter and as a result, average resistance values of less than 3% with respect to the standard concrete.
