Dissertação do programa de pós-graduação em Engenharia, Gestão de Processos, Sistemas e Ambiental (EGPSA), Instituto de Tecnologia e Educação Galileo da Amazônia (ITEGAM), Manaus, 2022.https://rigalileo.itegam.org.br/handle/123456789/64One of the great contemporary challenges for modern societies is the high volumes of solid waste generation, a result of the high levels of population growth and economic development experienced by several countries in recent decades. In this context, this work aimed to investigate aspects of waste generation in Brazil and the main waste management techniques that are reported in the literature. The methodology used comprises a literature review, where recent works were used in order to expose the current scenario of the Brazilian context, as well as waste management techniques used more widely. Through the information collected, it was possible to notice that Brazil has a high generation of waste, with about 216 tons per day throughout the national territory. In Brazil, the most used form of management refers to the use of sanitary landfills, however, landfills require complex management, in addition to a grandiose strip of land. In this way, solutions such as incineration can contribute to waste management both in Brazil and in the world, since it considerably reduces the volume of waste. Other alternatives reported in this study include bioremediation, recycling and composting. It is also noteworthy that recycling, despite being a highly effective method, leads to severe contamination problems, which makes the plants need to have strict controls for cleaning and care, avoiding the contamination of employees. Finally, several measures can be adopted, but they must consider the context in which cities and the respective State are located, aiming to obtain lower costs and greater efficiency.pdf.Gestão de resíduosTécnicas de gerenciamentoResíduos sólidosMeio ambienteReciclagemDissertação2.05.00.00-9 Ecologia
