Implementation and challenges of waste management: an analysis of the economic and environmental advantage in the recycling of Reverse Logistics / Implementação e os desafios da gestão de resíduos: uma análise da vantagem econômica e ambiental na reciclagem de Logística Reversa

Abstract

This research aimed to analyze the economic and environmental advantage of solid waste management with recycling in Reverse Logistics, highlighting the implementation and the challenges of its management. With Law No. 12,305, of August 2, 2010, the implementation of the National Solid Waste Policy (PNRS) in parallel with Reverse Logistics suggests the minimization of waste problems with integrated management through Reverse Logistics. This establishes shared responsibility between producers and consumers for the correct destination and disciplines the problem of solid waste. The study was carried out in two stages: in the first, the National Solid Waste Policy (PNRS) was registered in waste management with the recycling of reverse logistics. In the second stage, the economic and environmental advantage of the Reversa Logística of the Embrasures Plásticos of the Automotive Lubricant Oil in an Institute located in Paupina-Fortaleza / CE was analyzed. The criterion was adopted based on the qualitative and quantitative character. The results pointed to a significant importance of the PNRS for the recycling of Reverse Logistics packages with the adhesion of companies. Therefore, Reverse Logistics was fundamental in reducing waste returning to its life cycle and in better participating companies in waste management in a sustainable way.
