Abstract :
This paper is intended to demonstrate a smart solution to control one of the most important variables controlling the water quality, which is its pH, thus allowing to treat any reservoir and also perform the reuse of rainwater. The proposal is to produce a low-cost electronic application capable of maintaining the properties of the water within the standards.
