ANÁLISE SOBRE A GESTÃO DE RESÍDUOS DA CONSTRUÇÃO CIVIL NA CIDADE DE PORTO ALEGRE/RS

Abstract

Civil construction is responsible for generating major environmental impacts. Searching for measures to minimize the generation of civil construction waste and carrying out its correct destination are viable alternatives for reducing these impacts. The purpose of this study is to identify places used for regular disposal in Porto Alegre/RS and their relation with ongoing works. As a methodology, regular disposal points were mapped and buildings under construction were surveyed. It is concluded that there is no adequate amount of licensed landfills to receive the demand for waste generated by civil construction and the existing ones are far from generating sources.
