The objective of this book was to diagnose the management of solid waste from basic health units (UBS) in the urban area of the municipality of Pombal-PB. The methodology consisted of visits to the city hall and interviews with health agents aiming to map all the UBS of the city and the use of questionnaires applied to employees of basic health units in search of knowing the types of waste generated, analyze the segregation and packaging processes, verify the type of storage and the forms of final disposal. Subsequently, environmental control measures were proposed to protect the environment from possible damage. Based on the results, it was found that the waste generated in the UBS evaluated in this study were: infectious, chemical, sharp and common. The packaging of this waste is done in specific boxes, milky white bag with identification, common garbage cans and dumpsters. It was also found that the units did not participate in environmental education programs aimed at the importance of proper management of HSW.

This book aimed to diagnose the current process of management of solid urban waste in the municipality of Pombal - PB, and propose the management of the same in a more appropriate way in the face of local conditions.The method of diagnosing was based on a bibliographic survey, interview to the competent body and the application of questionnaires to the population, in all neighborhoods of the municipality. With the result of this study it was noticeable that the majority of the population needs to be informed about environmental issues, so that in this way they properly manage their waste. The municipal government is already taking some steps to reduce the impacts generated by the lack of proper management of its waste, but some points still need to be taken into account, such as working mainly to raise awareness of the population.

The objective of this study was to diagnose the environmental impacts on the quilombola community Pitombeira after the implementation of the Santa Luzia solar complex. The methodology used was based on bibliographic research in scientific and technical sources, field visits and photographic records. The georeferencing of the area was carried out, to identify the areas of influence, using geoprocessing tools; later, a simplified environmental diagnosis of the study's area of influence was made; then, the environmental impacts were identified and classified, and control measures and environmental plans and programs were indicated. Locally, 27 effects were manifested, according to the mitigation options, only 1 effect was classified as non-mitigating. The main environmental measures planned were: implementation of environmental education of the population to promote the reduction of consumption and recycling of materials; remove solid waste from the area and promote the use of the degraded area where the solar complex is located. Among the planned environmental plans and programs, the following stand out: the solid urban waste management plan.

The objective of this study was to identify and analyze the types and quantities of solid waste discarded by some establishments of female beauty in the city of Catolé do Rocha-PB and present possible mitigating measures. The study was developed in the months from June to September 2022, and included the following steps: choice of businesses, site visits followed by a questionnaire, diagnosis of the waste generated in the establishments, segregation, identification and classification according to the RDC ANVISA No. 222/2018, internal and external transportation, final destination and suggested implementation of mitigating measures. It was concluded that there is no segregation of waste, transportation and final disposal are performed in incorrect ways and can be harmful to the environment. Some control measures that can be adopted are: the packaging made in bags that are resistant to breakage, at the end of each workday all daily waste should be removed and transported to an area designated for such activity and be put out according to the schedule of the collection service, in order to have the appropriate final destination.

The objective of this work was to carry out a diagnosis of the management of waste from health services in two hospitals in Serra Talhada - PE, one large and the other medium-sized, which are regional and state references. An exploratory, descriptive, bibliographic and field study was carried out, aiming to observe, analyze, correlate and describe events or phenomena (variables), without manipulating them, through data collection. The data obtained were presented in a summarized form and described for easy understanding, making the information obtained more viable to be compared with other data from future works. It was noticed that there is a need for more theoretical and practical deepening of the professionals and that there is work overload for the service managers, which, in turn, causes an impact on the management process and makes it difficult for the teams to correctly operate in the collection stages and packaging. The two establishments targeted by the study have a Health Service Waste Management Plan (PGRSS).

The objective of this study was to diagnose the management of solid waste in the Basic Health Units (BHU) of the Municipality of Parelhas, in Rio Grande do Norte - RN. For this, a descriptive research was carried out, with a quantitative approach, in 8 Unidades Básicas de Saúde (Basic Health Units) of the municipality of Parelhas/RN. Data collection was performed in the month of July 2022, through the application of a Roadmap for observation of the management of health service waste within the units, prepared based on the Resolution of the Collegiate Board No. 222/2018 of the National Health Surveillance Agency. Through the observations and application of the checklist, it was possible to identify the management of group A (Infectious), B (Chemical), C (Radioactive), D (Common) and E (Piercing) waste. In all UBS no group C waste was found. The packaging of these wastes is mostly contradictory to what is proposed by the standard and the current legislation. It was identified that the waste does not undergo any type of treatment before temporary storage, and that all units have an outsourced company for the collection and final disposal of Health Service Waste.
