Projeto de protótipo de uma usina de pirólise no tratamento de resíduos sólidos a ser implantada na cidade de Santo Amaro-BA.

Abstract

The production of waste in the world should increase from 1.3 billion tons to 2.2 billion tons by the year 2025, according to estimates by the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP). In the midst of these news, there are alternatives that can be adopted in the disposal of garbage, thus improving the quality of life of the population and of future generations. There are basically three processes that have been applied to generate electricity using discarded garbage. Thus, this course completion work studies the making of a 3D projection of a small pyrolysis plant close to the current landfill located in the Santamarense district Sítio Camaçari. Based on the study carried out, the Pyrolysis plant is a means of waste disposal that can be implemented in any urban or rural area for the production of biochar. The great advantage of this method is the possibility of eliminating waste that irreversibly contaminate the soil and water, and can therefore be applied in small cities in Brazil, for the disposal of waste, mainly in dumps and landfills that are characterized by present totally unsatisfactory and unhealthy conditions for waste collectors who face health risks on a daily basis.
