Abstract

With the increase in population and the lack of effective public policies, the generation of waste in Brazil has increased significantly, which results in numerous management and even public health problems, since part of the waste generated in the country is still have an inadequate destination, being sent to dumps and controlled landfills, other than that, Brazil still has a low number of sanitary landfills and, for the most part, with limited dimensions, even for the cases of waste that have adequate destination. A large part of the population still manages waste that can be recycled or reverse logistics incorrectly, resulting in a destination culture that mixes these wastes with tailings and organic waste, where environmental impacts can have gigantic proportions. Therefore, this study evaluated the potential of a residential condominium for the reduction of waste sent to sanitary landfills, where, through the implementation of environmental education actions, the National Solid Waste Policy (PNRS), Federal Law no. 12.305/2010, aiming to reduce the generation of waste, and the proper disposal of waste for recycling or composting. The work presents solutions that aim, in addition to preserving the environment, direct benefits for the condominium itself, enabling the generation of complementary revenue, demonstrated through a previous study of the earnings that can be obtained monthly by the condominium, by adopting systems managent waste recyclable and selective collection.
