“…Community participation is one of the strategies that are considered fundamental, since the importance of the classification and selection of waste is highlighted. Strategies were proposed to promote environmental culture in the community and to counteract the direct causes of poor management of organic solid waste [39]. The objectives of this type of education are defined by UNESCO, and are the following:…”

Introduction: This article is the development of the "Design and implementation of an efficient model for the transformation and use of organic solid waste", in the “El Conjunto Residencial de Ontario in Bogotá. (Colombia)”. Problem: The accumulation of solid urban waste by the residential community shows an environmental problem that results in health problems, bad odors, the attraction of rodents and a poor physical appearance in the common areas of this complex, caused by the lack of use of this organic waste. Objective: formulate an efficient model for the transformation and use of organic solid waste in the “Conjunto Residencial Tejar de Ontario”. Methodology: Characterization by the method of quartering and use of organic waste through the design of a micro composting plant. Results: Physical properties such as color, odor and texture are recognized as well as chemical parameters such as C / N, pH and humidity, with these tools we obtain a good quality and fertile compost. Conclusion: The transformation of urban organic solid waste is an effective way of mitigating the environmental impact caused by not using it and simultaneously preventing this waste from reaching landfills. Originality: This transformation and use design was carried out for the first time in the “Conjunto Residencial Tejar de Ontario”, it also contains management strategies that allow optimizing the composting operation. Limitations: Find tools that are easily understood by the community to strengthen knowledge of recycling, source separation and composting.

“…In this context, some researchers recommend various methods for the adequate or alternative management of solid waste, pointing, for example, to standardized management systems (A. Simon et al) [10], categorical impact groups (A. Carvalho et al) [11], environmental management accounting (K. G. Papaspyropoulos et al) [12], use of eco-stations displaying appropriate environmental education (C. R. Malaver Flor et al) [13] and life cycle analysis (S. Bersimis and D. Georgakellos) [14]. However, due to the high danger they pose and the special management characteristics they demand, MW prevents these techniques from being widely used, as they could cause contamination of the UNHW, turning the latter into infectious and toxic waste (Y. C. Jang et al) [9].…”

Diagnosis Of Hospital, Hazardous and Similar Waste Management of an Institution Providing Health Services – IPHS

et al. 2020

Introduction: This article presents the results of the research carried out from January 2018 to December 2019, in an institution providing third-level health services (IPHS), located in Tunja (Boyacá), in eastern central Colombia. Problem: There are various difficulties related to the management of waste produced by the IPHS; Irresponsible practices cause the spread of infections, which have repercussions in critical situations locally, regionally and internationally. Objective: To evaluate the management of hospital, hazardous and similar waste (HCWM), carried out by an IPHS, and to formulate strategies for its improvement. Methodology: The research was carried out in three (3) stages: data collection (through inspections and weighing of waste), data analysis (for the qualification and quantification of the waste), and finally, some guidelines for its proper management were proposed, based on the context of the organization. Results: The IPHS generated 397.6 tonnes of hospital, hazardous and similar waste (MW). Biohazard waste (BW) predominated over the others (54.11%), followed by usable non-hazardous waste - UNHW (41.53%) and chemical and pharmaceutical waste - CPW (4, 37%). Conclusion: The entity complies with the main requirements of the national government, identifying good utilization and biosecurity practices; however, under diagnosis and with the implementation of guidelines emanating from research, it is possible to optimize procedures. Originality: The guidelines and activities for the separation, use and internal collection of waste within an IPHS were observed and then interrelated with the services provided and their resources. This work could be a guideline for related institutions. Limitations: The article focuses on the internal and non-external management of MW.
