Abstract

This study aims to analyze how the management of electrical and electronic solid waste is being conducted in the municipality of Sant'Ana do Livramento-RS, and what is the relationship between this management and the status of the municipal solid waste plan, since the Law 12,305/2010 was created, which creates and institutes the National Solid Waste Policy (PNRS), which requires cities to establish a solid waste management plan in order to mitigate the environmental impact caused by inadequate disposal. The method chosen for this research was mixed, with an approach, quali-quanti and descriptive research type. A questionnaire was applied to the local population, in order to ascertain their knowledge about electronic solid waste. 143 questionnaires were collected, as well as an interview with the Municipal Secretary of Urban Services of Sant'Ana do Livramento to check the status of the Plan Municipal solid waste and other information. It was concluded that the municipality of Sant’Ana do Livramento does not have a defined Municipal Solid Waste Plan, as this is still under discussion by the community and for its implementation it needs a wide dissemination and involvement of the population.
