The objective of this research was to reduce the organic and biological load of tributaries of the Ancón Wastewater Treatment Plant using microanobubbles of air and graphene. A preliminary sample of the affluent (3L) was taken, which had an initial concentration of Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD5) of 410 mg/L, Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) of 483 mg/L, Thermotolerant Coliforms of 44,000 NMP/100mL and turbidity of 63.33 NTU. The experimental part was carried out with 03 samples of 20 liters with 03 repetitions with a treatment time of 20, 40 and 60 minutes applying air nanobubbles and 6, 12 and 18 grams of graphene respectively. The results of the treated samples were: 87 mg/L representing 78.8% reduction in Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD5), 114 mg/L representing 76.4% reduction in Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD), 2,900 NMP/100mL that represents 93.41% reduction of Thermotolerant Coliforms and 12.4 NTU that represents 80.11% reduction of turbidity.
