Abstract |
This article presents a waste management model for civil construction based on the recycling and reuse of aggregates. Mixed approach research was carried out, using primary and secondary data to elaborate a strategic model based on the recycling and reuse of waste. Recycling alternatives already used in the studied region were used to define the aggregate that would compose the model, judging them through the hybrid method composed by Fuzzy TOPSIS and Shannon Entropy. The model was implemented in a case study in the South of Brazil to demonstrate empirical evidence. The results showed an approximation of public entities with universities, research centers, and private companies contributing to the region's environmental, economic, and social development. In implementing the model, many benefits can be added, such as reduced pollution, a cleaner environment, and income generation through commercializing the aggregate. This study brings practical and theoretical contributions, helping formulate strategic guidelines in the public sphere for the correct destination and reuse of waste and contributing to cities' sustainability. |
