Numbers show how important is a mechanical workshop, it is one of the main economics activities of Brazil´s services sector. Due this big quantity and the type of work, we can say that this kind of firm are a big generating of solid waste, and the most important, some of this waste have a large amount of toxic compounds. Therefore, the management and the discard must be done correctly, so there is no effect in the employee´s health and do not contaminate the environment. This work has analyzed a study in one case in Vila Mariana, São Paulo-SP, to diagnose measure and quantify the generation of this waste and your management in a small workshop. After the identification of the wastes they were classified after NBR-10.004 da ABNT, with the purpose of make it easier to analysis. It can be observed a several mistakes in the management of this workshop, in all of the stages, collection, handling, storage, transportation and final discard. It was observed that the management of the wastes is ineffective and problematic, and must be improved through more sector agreements, given the necessary importance for the correct management.

The urban population increase in the world, the economic expansion, and the rise in living standards associated with society’s habits and lifestyles accelerated the municipal solid waste (MSW) generation in undeveloped countries, such as in Brazil, in which the generation increased by 25% from 2012 to 2017. In the same period, the São Paulo state, the richest Brazilian state, increased its municipal solid waste generation by 51%. All this MSW needed to be collected and transported, and this process has a high economic and environmental cost. Therefore, this study aims to identify, using spatial analysis, the routes used by MSW trucks to estimate the distances traveled to dispose of the MSW on a regional scale considering all municipalities in the São Paulo state. The findings showed that the landfill numbers decrease, mainly individual ones, which receive MSW only from the city where it is located. Otherwise, the consortium landfills number is increasing, as well as the number of municipalities that share the same disposal site. Consequently, the distances to transport MSW from urban areas to final disposal sites increased by about 55% from 2012 to 2017, reaching 613 million kilometers during this period. This total distance is sufficient to make more than 12,806 laps on Earth and contribute to high fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emission.

The investigation of the views of the stakeholders involved in the municipal solid waste separate collection programme (CP) performed in the East Zone of the city of São Paulo is presented in this paper. Aiming to obtain the necessary information to be analysed, interviews with the manager of the Municipal Urban Cleaning Authority (MUCA) of the city, with leaders of recycling worker cooperatives (WCs), and citizens were performed using semi-structured questionnaires. The analysis was performed using the software “IRAMUTEQ”. The results show that, in the view of the manager of the MUCA of the city and the WCs’ leaders, the low adhesion of the population to the separate CP is the greatest obstacle to a further expansion of the existing programme. At the same time, the citizens have blamed the low diffusion made by the municipality about the separate CP in the East Zone of São Paulo. Thus, it can be concluded that the separate CP available in the East Zone of São Paulo is still flawed; since neither the public power, the WCs, nor the population are satisfied and point out several flaws. This situation highlights the need to establish better venues for discussion between the population, WCs, and the municipality to jointly design a separate collection system with a more participatory approach.

Este artigo tem o intuito de analisar a situação do saneamento básico em 2015 por meio de indicadores e sua relação com a dinâmica demográfica dos anos 2000 e 2015 na Unidade de Negócio Oeste (MO) da Companhia de Saneamento Básico do Estado de São Paulo (Sabesp) pelo uso do geoprocessamento. Foram criados mapas no software QGIS que possibilitaram a espacialização dos indicadores analisados para os anos de 2010 e 2015, os quais são: a) atendimento de água, b) atendimento de esgoto, c) perdas na distribuição, d) cobertura de co- leta direta de resíduos sólidos urbanos (RSU) e e) massa coletada de RSU. Houve um aumento na densidade populacional média da MO que saltou dos 5.414,73 hab./km² em 2000 para os 6.650,26 hab./km² em 2015, resultando em uma aglomeração maior de pessoas nas áreas urbanizadas. Dos indicadores, cinco tiveram uma relativa melhoria e um, o de perdas na distribuição, teve um retrocesso. A metodologia é útil para avaliar os in- dicadores, a servir como balizadora para estudos futuros em outras áreas operadas pela Sabesp. Palavras-chave: Esgotamento Sanitário. Abastecimento de Água Potável. Resíduos Sólidos. Densidade De- mográfica. Geoprocessamento. This article intends to analyze the situation of basic sanitation in 2015 through indicators and its relation with the demographic dynamics of the years 2000 and 2015 in the Business Unit West (MO) of the Sanitation Company of the State of São Paulo (Sabesp) through the use of geoprocessing. The maps were created in the QGIS software that enabled the spatialization of the analyzed indicators for the years 2010 and 2015, which are: a) water supply, b) sewage service, c) distribution losses, d) direct collection of urban solid waste and e) mass collected from urban solid wasted. There was an increase in the mean population density of MO from 5,414.73 inhab./km² in 2000 to 6,650.26 inhab./km² in 2015, resulting in a larger population crowding in urbanized areas. Of the indicators, five had a relative improvement and one, the one of losses in the distribution, had a setback. The methodology is useful to evaluate the indicators, to serve as a beacon for future studies in other areas operated by SABESP. Keywords: Sanitary sewage. Drinking Water Supply. Solid Waste. Demographic Density. Geoprocessing.

The objective of this paper is to present a brief overview of the current situation of solid waste in Brazil, as well as the importance of the National Policy of Solid Waste as the main regulatory milestone of the country, clarifying the role of society, government and the private sector. Moreover, this law is essential for determining the closing of dumps, encouraging municipal consortia and establishing a hierarchy for solid waste management through waste reduction at source, reuse, recycling, energy recovery and disposal. Also it aims to understand how São Paulo, the most important city of Brazil, is currently facing the problem and what are the scenarios and proposals indicated in the Integrated Management Solid Waste Plan of the city to get the sustainable solid waste management of São Paulo in operation.

Forest Protection

The depletion of natural resources, the useful life of landfill sites, and the amount of garbage accumulating all challenge public policy to manage urban solid waste. We identified the economic potential for unused solid waste (HSW) in São Paulo in 2018 to be USD 637,633,836.04 through descriptive quantitative research and documentary analysis in the collected data. This amount comes from five sources, with the majority coming from internalizing private cost credits (45.58%), followed by recycling (42.21%), carbon credits (5.46%), refuse-derived fuel (3.77%), and organic compounds (2.98%). This potential assumes the implantation of waste sorting plants that generate jobs, reduce public expenses, and provide environmental benefits such as forest protection, water, and minerals. The environmentally adequate final destination of HSW constitutes an economic and socio-environmental measure that enables the reverse logistics of the business sector and urban sustainability. Consequently, the economic potential of HSW, generated from its sorting and marketing, could provide a positive contribution with the mitigation of environmental impacts, in addition to income generation and social inclusion.
