“…The port, at first, must have a relevant level of environmental knowledge before the practical implementations, that is why a method called SDM (Self Diagnosis Method) has been developed. Through this method, it is possible to evaluate the environmental management of the port in question through a strategic questionnaire designated to environmental managers (DARBRA et al, 2004;ROMERO et al, 2014). The SDM method has five objectives, these are:…”

This paper aims to evaluate the sustainable performance within the concept of Green Port in the logistics operations. Through literature review about green port implementation in different ports worldwide, as well as the studies of various technologies and methods that aim to make the port environment more sustainable, this study will go through different levels, from the shipping loading and unloading, passing through all sectors and actors related to the movement of cargo inside the port, which may on the sustainable performance of the environment, to the inland transportation. The study focus on the reduction of emissions of pollutant gases such as sulfur oxides (Sox), oxides of nitrogen (NOx), atmospheric particulate matter (PM) and Carbon dioxide (CO2). The work addresses the possible innovations in the logistics operations inherent in the transportation, storage, and handling of goods, involving the analysis, types, and operations of the resources used in the port management of the largest port in Brazil, Port of Santos.

“…Ambos os passivos, estatal e ambiental, devem ser superados o mais rápido possível, já que o papel dos portos no novo modelo portuário nacional, um ambiente de extrema competição, exige velocidade na tomada de decisões e implementação de soluções, assim como uma nova postura ambiental (ROMERO et al, 2014).…”

A atividade portuária, caracterizada como um sistema ambiental portuário, possui uma importância destacada no âmbito das zonas costeiras em que se insere. A elevada capacidade de controlar ou influenciar atividades que correm na mesma área geográfica faz com que os portos gerem impactos ambientais positivos e negativos significativos. Tal importância relativa e a constatada expansão observada do setor portuário brasileiro geram a necessidade de que suas atividades sejam ordenadas por iniciativas de Gestão Ambiental Portuária (GAP), em fase com padrões ambientais internacionalmente aceitos. O presente artigo discute elementos aninhados no conceito da gestão ambientalportuária, tendo em conta a nova realidade portuária brasileira e algumas referências modelares internacionais, referentes a ações ambientalmente adequadas para o setor. Na análise realizada, são tomadas em conta considerações atreladas às novas propostastecnológicas internacionais e à realidade da política portuária brasileira. Nesse contexto, o porto de Rio Grande, Rio Grande do Sul, foi trabalhado como um estudo de caso, exemplificando sua estrutura e o modelo de gestão ambiental portuária que tenta implementar.

“…Coastal harbours are among marine environments highly vulnerable to chemical pollution as they tend to receive and accumulate pollutants from maritime activities and other human activities within their catchments, including urbanisation, industrialisation and agriculture Romero et al, 2014). Coastal harbours are also prone to siltation as a result of the influxes of sediment-laden seawater (Senten, 1989; with subsequent deposition and accumulation of the sediments within the harbour basin under favourable hydrodynamic conditions .…”
