Avaliação de emissões de gases de efeito estufa no CEASA/PE
(2024-07-24) Soares, Guilherme Bastos; Pragana, Rossanna Barbosa; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8705453663044944; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7776540361160364
Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions have always occurred naturally on Earth, but global concern about anthropogenic emissions began in 1979, with the holding of the first world climate conference. After that, several agreements were created with the aim of reducing emissions of these gases, such as Eco-92, the Kyoto Protocol and the Paris agreement, which established goals for reducing GHG emissions. Accounting for these gases is a way of quantifying emissions from activities carried out in a company or organization, therefore, the study aimed to map the activities carried out at CEASA/PE, seeking methods to quantify the emissions generated, such as through the calculation of the GHG Protocol, which condenses the emission factors calculated for each process according to the year in which the emissions will be recorded. For the calculations of emissions avoided in the composting process, the AMS-III.F tool was used, making a comparison with emissions arising from the waste landfilling process. With the calculations carried out, it was possible to observe that CEASA had a total of 13.481,24 tons of CO2-eq emitted in the year 2023, with the composting process at CEASA-PE avoiding the emission of 8,108 tCO2-eq, when compared to landfilling. of the same waste. Furthermore, it is observed that if all organic waste were composted by the center, the avoided emissions could reach up to 22,656.9 tCO2-eq, demonstrating the potential of composting to reduce GHG emissions. Furthermore, the study notes that composting is an important contributor to the reduction of GHG emissions, requiring the implementation of broader and more controlled composting processes. It is recommended that there be more studies related to the transport of waste to optimize the effectiveness in reducing composting projects.
Gerenciamento de resíduos de equipamentos eletroeletrônicos de Recife, Pernambuco: proposição de melhorias visando à sustentabilidade
(2024-09-30) Moraes, Estela Carneiro; Costa Filho, Francisco das Chagas da; Cravo, Janielly Mantovani; http://lattes.cnpq.br/2930296374645794; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5796569565249170
Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), also known as e-waste, refers to waste originating from equipment that relies on electric current or electromagnetic fields for operation. The increasing generation of this waste, and the risk of environmental contamination posed by its constituent materials, represent current challenges that require the attention of government, institutions and the general population. For this reason, with the aim of providing more information about WEEE management in the city of Recife-PE, this research carried out an assessment of the current context of waste management in the city, in order to identify possible improvements, analyzing the types of waste collected, the functioning of companies, and potential sustainable destinations. In this context, six main companies responsible for managing this waste in the municipality were identified, offering collection services and voluntary drop-off points throughout Recife in partnership with other entities. The improvement proposals include strengthening reverse logistics by increasing collection points in strategic locations and encouraging technological innovation, in addition to implementing environmental education programs in both schools and communities.Furthermore, the creation of a municipal portal on WEEE and the development of public-private partnerships are essential for improving the management of this waste. Despite some initiatives, Recife still lags behind other cities, such as São Paulo-SP and Fernandes Pinheiro-PR, in terms of the legal framework and WEEE management practices, highlighting the need for greater public involvement and transparency in data dissemination. After the study, it was possible to affirm that it is necessary to expand investments in WEEE management, increase public-private partnerships, and promote public awareness throughenvironmental education.
Proposta de indicador de sustentabilidade ambiental e social baseado em índices relacionados aos objetivos de desenvolvimento sustentável: estudo de caso da região Nordeste
(2025-03-21) Negromonte, Maria Luísa Lima; Santos, André Felipe de Melo Sales; Araújo, Chiara Natércia França; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7273384016233113; http://lattes.cnpq.br/2607034933775460; http://lattes.cnpq.br/6098112165923326
A busca pelo desenvolvimento sustentável requer uma abordagem integrada que leve em consideração fatores ambientais, sociais e econômicos. Nesse contexto, este trabalho teve como objetivo analisar a sustentabilidade ambiental e social na Região Nordeste do Brasil por meio de indicadores relacionados aos Objetivos de Desenvolvimento Sustentável (ODS), e na criação do Índice de Sustentabilidade Global (ISG), que sintetiza os resultados obtidos. Foram coletados e analisados dados secundários de fontes oficiais, como o IBGE e o projeto MapBiomas, para calcular sete índices agregados associados aos ODS 3, 6, 7, 11 e 13. Os resultados indicaram que, embora haja avanços em algumas áreas, ainda existem desafios significativos relacionados ao saneamento básico, desigualdade urbana e vulnerabilidade ambiental. Os resultados reforçam a necessidade de políticas públicas mais eficazes, investimentos em infraestrutura sustentável e uma abordagem estratégica para reduzir desigualdades regionais e promover um desenvolvimento sustentável mais equitativo.
