Identification of Construction, Refurbishment and Demolition Wastes in the Urban Area of Porto Nacional - TO

Abstract

With the development of the civil engineering business, cities are growing, and new construction is emerging, leading to the generation of construction waste, renovation and demolition. Therefore, this work aimed to identify these residues in small works in the urban region of Porto Nacional - TO. Through a survey of data, we studied 10 (ten) works of the municipality, observing the waste in relation to its identification, classification, separation and destination, was noted if there was presentation of compliance with current standards and laws. This is because improper disposal of these materials generates environmental, social and public health impacts. Thus, after the analysis of the works, waste management was proposed to minimize these problems with alternatives for reuse and recycling of these products. Hopefully, this study can bring improvements to local health, as well as help in the development of the city, and may even cause savings in the construction process.
