Avaliação do gerenciamento dos pneus inservíveis no Município de São Gabriel (RS)

Abstract

Humankind has always exploited the environment as a source of raw material for its existence, but over the years with population growth, the chain of consumption, culminated in a large accumulation of waste that increase every day. We need to learn how to handle our own waste, and rethink its consumer chain. The present work had as main objective to investigate how it happens the management of the waste tires and what actions seek to reuse a common good in the municipality of São Gabriel - Rio Grande do Sul. The data were collected in available digital databases and through questioning addressed to those responsible for waste management issues, and to the managers benefited by the actions of reutilization of waste tires. It was possible to identify failures in the collection and final destination of waste tires, as well as to know actions that besides giving an adequate utility promote the construction of a good by transforming a waste with potential to generate problems, in a product of common use and embellishment.
