Qualidade ambiental em frigorífico no município de Caçapava do Sul - RS. 2018

Abstract

Natural resources are extremely important factors for the survival of human beings. Over the years, due to the increase in environmental degradation, several sectors have been interested in applying measures that aim to minimize the impacts caused to the environment.The implementation of sustainable production systems and the search for so-called environmental sustainability provide a reciprocal exchange of benefits between the companies involved and the environment as a whole.Therefore, companies have set up strategies to seek improvements in their production mainly with their waste generated in the process, often using as environmental marketing, to improve their sales to the competition, also because the inspection has been increasing in recent times by the government, and often by consumers. As is the case with meat-packing plants, which are important in the generation of liquid effluents and solid waste, it is a great polluter. Thus, this work aims to collaborate with the slaughterhouse of the municipality of Caçapava do Sul, Rio Grande do Sul, identifying, analyzing and monitoring the present failures of slaughter, liquid effluent and solid waste generation. For that, visits were made to the study area in order to identify the critical points. Since then, environmental management tools have been applied, proposals for improvements have been made, pointing out actions to reduce environmental impacts on the site.
