Implantação de um sistema de gestão ambiental: estudo de caso no laboratório de química orgânica do Instituto Federal de Ciências, Educação e Tecnologia do Amazonas – IFAM/Campus Manaus Centro

Abstract

This dissertation addresses the implementation of an Environmental Management System (EMS) in the Organic Chemistry Laboratory at IFAM/Campus Manaus Centro. The study emphasizes the importance of sustainable practices in higher education institutions, especially in laboratories dealing with potentially hazardous chemicals. Using methodologies such as the Leopold matrix and Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA), the study identifies environmental impacts and proposes mitigation measures. The research concludes that implementing the EMS can significantly reduce environmental impacts, improve operational efficiency, and serve as a model for other institutions.
