The results concluded that, taking into account the parameters of dissolved oxygen, biochemical demand of oxygen and ammoniacal nitrogen, the studied area is categorized with incipient contamination and, on the other hand, it is characterized as eutrophic by phosphorus. La modificación del régimen hidrológico del arroyo Mbói Caé constituyó un cambio importante en la ciudad de Encarnación y alrededores que ha beneficiado a las poblaciones con la generación de energía hidroeléctrica, las actividades recreativas, la disponibilidad de agua, etc. La presente investigación tiene el objetivo de analizar la calidad del agua del embalse Mbói Caé del departamento de Itapúa mediante el Índice de Calidad de Agua según el Sistema Holandés de Valoración y el Índice de Contaminación ICOTRO basado en la concentración de fósforo total en el periodo noviembre del año 2017 a septiembre del año 2018. Los resultados concluyeron que, teniendo en cuenta los parámetros de oxígeno disuelto, demanda bioquímica de oxígeno y nitrógeno amoniacal, el área de estudio se encuentra categorizada con contaminación incipiente y, por otra parte, se caracteriza como eutrófico por fósforo.
