Monitoring the flow of sewerage systems allows us to know the real behavior of each system and serves as a fundamental tool in wastewater management. For the design of sewerage systems, it is necessary to know the wastewater flows that will be transported by the system and, based on these volumes, the factors that represent the consumption patterns and the characteristics of each community must be estimated. In the absence of information, these factors should be estimated with existing empirical equations developed in research carried out in different cities around the world. The main objective of this research is to estimate the factors specific to the sanitary sewerage system of San José de Cúcuta, for this purpose, the monitoring of the wastewater flow was implemented for 19 weeks, and upon analyzing the data, the hourly variation of the flow entering the system was obtained, and based on the measured flows, a major factor was determined, which represents the characteristics of the city; The factor obtained was also compared with the results of the existing empirical equations and it was possible to identify which of these equations best fit the monitoring campaigns.
