Cenários de reaproveitamento da água gerada por ar condicionados de uma instituição

The article presents the modeling and development of a simulation model to evaluate the reuse of water generated by the conditioned air of a public higher education institution (IES). For this, the methodology of computational modeling and simulation was used: from the elaboration of a model, scenarios were constructed to carry out the analysis of the results. Among the analyzed aspects is the reduction of the financial impact, due to the reduction of the consumption of drinking water. To evaluate the possibilities, three scenarios were generated: a scenario based on the current situation, another called the Moderate scenario and finally the optimistic scenario. The results obtained through the simulation show that the reutilization process brings a significant financial gain. The simulated time horizon was ten years and Vensim software was used for the simulation development.
