Análise das estratégias de gestão dos resíduos gerados no laboratório de solo da Faculdade de Agronomia e Engenharia Florestal da Universidade Eduardo Mondlane

Abstract

The present study constitutes an analysis of the waste management strategies generated in the Soil Laboratory of the Faculty of Agronomy and Forestry of the University Eduardo Mondlane. The same was done with the objective of describing the activities developed, the identification of residues generated in the soil analysis process and the identification of waste management strategies generated at the Soil Laboratory. So, for the achievement of these objectives, the qualitative method and case study approach were used. As for nature, it was an exploratory study, which used instruments such as observation and semi-structured interview for data collection. From the study carried out, it was concluded It is understood that the activities developed in the LS are: chemical and physical analysis of soils, support for teaching, research, extension and culmination of undergraduate, master's and doctorate. While, with regard to the solid waste generated, it was verified with the study that, in the process of soil analysis, liquid and solid residues are generated such as: potassium dichromate, sulfuric acid, magnesium, sodium, soils mixed with chemicals, paper filter, bottles, glasses, papers, bags, organic and inorganic residues. In general, it is concluded that the soil management strategies of the Soil Laboratory are linked to the deposition, collection and final destination through waste collection companies.(TRADUÇÃO NOSSA)
