One of the challenges generated by the Brazilian Solid Waste Policy, which entered into force in Brazil in August 2010, is the adherence to the selective collection of municipal waste. Data from government institutions and scientific research have shown that millions of tons of municipal solid waste per year still have improper destination in the country and only 14% of cities operate structured selective collection of recyclable material programs. Even in cities that rely on selective waste collection programs, the amount of recyclable materials despised is still great and the low participation of the population in the separation of materials contributes to this scenario. The present study aims to portray the situation of separation and collection of recyclable materials in Brazil and present the results of studies that identified factors that motivate the practices of separation and the barriers in several countries. |
