Estudo comparativo do Serviço de Esgotamento Sanitário nos Municípios de Fortaleza- CE, Franca- SP e Curitiba- PR.

Abstract

Basic sanitation, as public policy, faces implementation difficulties for the entire population. In Brazil, until the end of the twentieth century, little was done for the general population to have access to this right, after the implementation of some programs in the 1970s and with the 2007 regulatory framework, municipalities had more power and participation in sanitation processes. The data used in the study were taken from the National Sanitation Information System (SNIS) application, with information on water supply, sewage and solid waste collection since 1995. The selection of some of these data related to Fortaleza, Franca and Curitiba was selected because they are large cities that represent a large part of Brazil, some information on sanitary sewage was selected for a comparison between the mentioned municipalities. When comparing the quality of the service of Fortaleza with the other municipalities it is seen that there is a great way to go towards the universalization of basic sanitation.
