Sustentabilidade e rotas tecnológicas de reciclagem para a cidade de Salvador, no âmbito da política nacional de resíduos sólidos

Abstract

This paper aims to model the change in the productive structure of Bahia state resulting from the recycling of municipal solid waste generated in the city of Salvador. For this, the technological routes of mechanical recycling and energy recycling were considered. The input-output analysis was used to simulate the change in the technological structure of inputs provided by the adoption of each route. The results show that mechanical recycling is more efficient, both from an economic point of view as the conservation of natural resources.
