Proposição de projeto piloto para implementação de coleta seletiva de resíduos comuns em planta industrial

Abstract

The desire to achieve sustainable development has taken up a lot of space in industries. Those that are committed to sustainability are always looking for ways to act to stay sustainable. One of the great business challenges is the management of waste that is considered common, that generated in pantries, offices and in some points of the production lines. The company under study already has a Solid Waste Management Plan (PGRS) focused on industrial waste. Therefore, the general objective of this work was to propose a selective waste collection management model for common waste, based on the Cleaner Production (P + L) environmental strategy in a plastic laminate manufacturing industry, located in the municipality of Cabo de Santo Agostinho, Pernambuco. Firstly, a history of disposal costs and the generation of common waste in the last three years was made. A list was also drawn up with the main components of this waste, allowing the formulation and adequacy of the proposal, which seeks to minimize environmental impacts through legally correct disposal of recyclable waste and the appropriate final disposal of waste, that is, in landfills making it possible for the company to achieve financial gains by reducing costs, reinforcing socio-environmental responsibility and, at the same time, a step in cleaner production, in search of environmental certification.
