One of the most important environmental problems is municipal solid waste management (MSWM) as a result of the rapid rise in waste generation due to industrialization, economic development, urbanization, and rapid population growth in Turkey. The collection, transportation, and disposal of solid waste are conducted by municipal authorities of Turkey. The waste management problem is getting more serious due to some reasons such as lack of enforcement of regulations, weak technical and financial resources, poor infrastructure, insufficient policies and deficiency of political priorities, poor coordination between authorities. Hence, despite the legislation, municipal solid wastes are managed in an unscientific manner by the municipalities. The SWOT analysis is a perfect tool to discover the possibilities and ways for successfully implementing the MSWM. In this study, SWOT analysis carried out both negative and positive concerns of MSWM. A successful strategic management has been identified from the SWOT analysis for the municipal solid wastes. Further, the study proposes options based on SWOT analysis approach to improve in available waste management practices that could also be adopted by other countries to decrease the adverse effect of MSW on human and environment health.

“…Alguns aspectos precisam ser melhorados, como: a educação ambiental desde o ensino fundamental; a urgência de maior envolvimento dos produtores; a instalação de pontos de coleta de lixo eletrônico nos canais de varejo (ou seja, lojas de varejo, shoppings, farmácias, postos de gasolina, escolas, supermercados entre outros); a criação de políticas governamentais relacionadas a incentivos fiscais; o uso e a adaptação de tecnologias e sistemas para registrar e controlar o retorno do lixo eletrônico; a implementação de procedimentos para controle efetivo pelo Governo para garantir a efetividade da PNRS. 110 Existem ainda muitos obstáculos para o setor de reciclagem organizado e informal se tornar reconhecido como um ator importante na separação eficiente de materiais e ampliar essas atividades para uma contribuição efetiva para a gestão dos REEE. 111 Políticas precisam estar em vigor para garantir relações de trabalho justas e seguras, onde as comunidades e o meio ambiente se beneficiarão desta nova fonte de matérias-primas.…”

“…Nenhum empreendimento no Brasil processa quimicamente componentes de produtos eletroeletrônicos. 18,103,110,111 São aplicados apenas processos físicos na manufatura reversa, o que implica que esta tem apenas a meta de segregação. O que diferencia muito as empresas nesse aspecto é o nível de detalhamento da manufatura, função do instrumental e tecnologia disponíveis para tal.…”

This review describes the technological, environmental, socio-cultural, economical and health challenges due to the waste electrical and electronic equipment. The rate of production of this waste has reached scary levels in the last years, and the level of perception of the populations facing the challenges imposed for their management greatly varies from one country to another. Solutions for waste electrical and electronic equipment are extremely complex, from the establishment of an effective reverse logistics of used products and reverse manufacturing protocols, to the proposal of technologies capable of processing the components of the various electrical and electronic products. Printed circuit boards, cathode ray tubes and liquid crystal displays are the most difficult components to recycle due to their multi-component nature: although they contain high-added value elements in much larger amounts than those of primary sources, they also present metallic components and organic compounds that are highly toxic to health and lead to environmental impacts. Brazil has begun to pay attention to the problem of e-waste relatively recently. Despite ongoing initiatives, the country still has a long way to go until the establishment of a management system that covers all its stages and peculiarities, such as its territorial extension. Waste electrical and electronic equipment is one of the most eloquent symbols of Anthropocene.

“…En [11] se abordó la problemática nacional de Brasil sobre los residuos sólidos debido a la falta de métodos y regulaciones acerca de los desechos electrónicos. Para ello se utilizaron metodologías como SODA (Strategic Options Development Analysis), PSM (Problem Structuring Methods), VFT (Value Focused Thinking Approach), SSM (Soft System Methodology) y SCA (Strategic Choice Approach) para análisis estratégicos y mejorar la toma de decisiones conjuntas en la cadena de suministro para los fines de procesamiento de desechos electrónicos.…”

Resumen. La eliminación de desechos eléctricos y electrónicos, conocidos como tecno-basura, es uno de los retos más importantes para el medio ambiente. Esto dados los diferentes metales pesados que contienen estos desechos. Si bien existen centros especializados de reciclaje con la infraestructura para separar metales que pueden ser re-utilizados para reducir su impacto ambiental, su transporte hacia dichos centros es un problema que requiere planeación. El presente trabajo define una ruta logística para distribución de tecno-basura a 24 centros de reciclado en la Ciudad de Puebla. Esto con la finalidad de contribuir a la disminución de los niveles de tecno-basura en la ciudad. Para ello se emplearon herramientas heurísticas y programación en Octave. Los resultados respaldan la factibilidad de esta metodología en el contexto real para transporte de estos desechos.Palabras clave: tecno-basura, red de distribución, heurísticas, optimización.Abstract. The disposal of electrical and electronic waste, known as e-waste, is one of the most important challenges for the environment. This is due to the different heavy metals within this waste. Although there are specialized recycling centers with the infrastructure to separate metals that can be reused to reduce their environmental impact, the transportation of this waste to these centers is a problem that requires planning. This work defines a logistic route for the distribution of e-waste to 24 recycling centers in the City of Puebla. This is proposed to contribute to decrease the levels of e-waste in the city. To accomplish this, heuristic tools and programming with Octave were considered. The results support the feasibility of this methodology in the real context of transportation of e-waste.
