Proposta de melhoria de gestão de resíduos sólidos industriais na refrigerantes SPAR

Abstract

Industrial activities generate solid waste of different characteristics and quantities, which must be managed appropriately to avoid polluting the environment. Waste generation in a soft drinks industry must be controlled and requires efficient management, given the risks involved in handling, transporting and storing waste. Law number 31/2014 of 30 December establishes priority in the management of solid waste, which falls within the solid waste management hierarchy. Sustainable management presupposes an approach that takes as a reference the 3 Rs principle, which includes: Reduction involving activities and measures to avoid waste disposal. Reuse consists of reusing waste before disposal or recycling. Recycling is the way of reusing the waste generated or part of it in the same or another production process. Quantifying waste is one of the efficient methods for improving management and understanding the amount of waste produced in the industry, through the values ​​obtained, knowing the methods for minimizing the generation of waste taken to landfill. The main objective is to reduce the amount of waste, in this case, paper and organic matter taken to landfill, increasing the percentage of recycling and reuse of waste, thus contributing to the circular economy. The diagnosis made it was found that the soft drink production industry produces around 29% paper, corresponding to 3,392.021 kg, and 54% plastic, corresponding to 7,377.195 kg, during peak production times. During the low production period, approximately 56.71% of plastic waste, corresponding to 8811.005 kg, and paper, corresponding to 26.04%, corresponding to 4769.389 kg, are recycled. Waste is categorized appropriately, but at some point there is a need to increase the packaging of a certain type of waste in order to minimize the mixing of different types. It was found that in order to optimize the management of industrial solid waste, it is necessary to draw up a solid waste management improvement plan, which will be reviewed as necessary, in order to achieve new objectives and goals for continuous improvement of the process.
