pt-BR
Background: This study was carried out with the objective of analyzing the feasibility of implementing the Landfill Program in a manufacturing industry located in the Industrial Pole of Manaus (PIM). The PIM is a major industrial region and presents a significant challenge with regard to waste management. In this context, the Zero Landfill Program emerges as a sustainable approach that seeks to reduce the sending of waste to landfills, encourage the reuse of materials and promote recycling, creating an economic cycle and inspiring other companies to adopt similar practices.
Materials and methods: To achieve the proposed objectives, a case study was carried out in the manufacturing industry of Manaus. Based on the principles of the 3Rs (reduce, reuse and recycle), sustainable industrial waste management practices were developed. Actions were implemented to reduce the amount of waste generated in the production process, promoting awareness of the importance of reducing at source. In addition, procedures have been established for the reuse of materials whenever possible, seeking to extend their useful life cycle and minimize disposal. Recycling programs were also implemented, encouraging the transformation of waste into new products or raw materials.
Results: The results obtained were promising. The Manaus plant was able to meet the necessary criteria to obtain certification in the Zero Landfill Program. This means that the company was able to significantly reduce the amount of waste sent to landfills, keeping this value below 1% of the total waste generated in the production process. In addition, the factory was able to take advantage of and recycle at least 3% of the waste, transforming it into energy through appropriate processes.
Conclusion: Based on the results obtained in this study, it is possible to conclude that the implementation of the Landfill Program in a transformation industry in the Industrial Pole of Manaus is feasible and brings significant benefits in terms of environmental sustainability. The Manaus factory served as an example of good practices, encouraging other companies to adopt similar measures to reduce their environmental impact. However, for a deeper understanding of the subject, future studies are recommended. These studies may include expanding the analysis to other industries and regions, in order to verify the applicability of the Landfill Program in different contexts. In addition, it is important to carry out cost-benefit analyzes to assess the economic viability of these sustainable practices, as well as more comprehensive environmental impact assessments. It would also be interesting to investigate the perception of employees and the local community regarding the implemented changes, seeking to obtain valuable feedback.
