Proposta De Coleta Seletiva Para Pontos De Ônibus Nas Proximidades Do Campus Ii De Presidente Prudente – Sp

Abstract

– Improperly discarded solid waste has become a growing problem, proportional to population growth. There is a very worrying picture regarding the disposal of solid waste in the country. Poorly discarded waste often turns into environmental problems with costly and complex management. Therefore, the present project had the objective of quantifying the recyclable solid waste discarded in the vicinity of the Unoeste Campus II bus stops, in Presidente Prudente - SP, and thus propose an environmentally adequate collection and disposal. The work was done in two stages, the first being the collection of the residues at the selected points at specific times and the second being the separation and weighing of the same, synthesizing the results into tables in order to do the statistical design. The total weight of the collected residues in the morning, afternoon and night periods was 24.9 kg. According to the statistical projection, in one year a total of 968.4 kg of waste would be inappropriately discarded in urban roads, thus requiring strategic collection points, as well as the environmental education of the population as a whole
