The Case of Brazil’s Municipal Solid Waste Management: Residents’ Perceptions

Análise bibliométrica das tendências de pesquisas sobre indicadores aplicados à gestão de resíduos sólidos urbanos no período de 2010 a 2021

“…A cobertura da coleta de resíduos é outra medida importante na gestão de resíduos sólidos, pois avalia a extensão de uma área geográfica atendida pelo serviço de coleta. Por sua vez, os indicadores econômicos fornecem informações sobre a situação econômico-financeira da gestão de resíduos (Zeng et al, 2017), estando diretamente relacionados aos custos e as receitas.

Sustainability Indicators Model Applied to Waste Management in Brazil Using the DPSIR Framework

“…For example, Rebehy et al [26] studied the variables that influence the recovery of solid waste and best practices of efficient municipalities in Brazil; Paes et al [25] focused on the main enablers of innovations in solid waste management in four municipalities and the respective actions between circular economy and climate change; Silva et al [27] investigated the potential of utilizing MSW as refuse-derived fuel and the respective energy and greenhouse gas emissions impacts in Brasília; Jucá et al [28] assessed the management of MSW in Recife through sustainability indicators across social, environmental, economic, and institutional dimensions; Fuss et al [29] analyzed the development of a framework to evaluate MSW in Belo Horizonte, integrating economic, environmental, and social dimensions; Miranda et al [30] studied the integration of recycling cooperatives in a medium-sized municipality (Londrina), aiming to assess their contributions within a circular economy structure and identify benchmarking options for similar cooperatives; and Alfaia et al [17] and Lino et al [22] carried out comprehensive reviews of MSW in Brazil. Other topics less explored in the literature include the management of specific types of waste, such as e-waste [31,32] and construction and demolition waste [33], waste characterization in Brazil [34], the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on solid waste generation in the country [35], public perceptions, residents' awareness and attitudes toward waste management practices in specific Brazilian cities [36], and bibliometric studies on the impact of PNRS on Brazilian scientific production [37].…”
