Abstract
A expansão dos níveis de produção perseguidos atualmente com vistas à elevação dos níveis de emprego e renda gerados pela economia e a manutenção dos padrões de consumo demandados pela sociedade fazem com que haja uma crescente pressão sobre os recursos naturais. A análise dos processos e produtos gerados pelas indústrias tornaria viável adoção de medidas capazes de obter resultados mais eficientes. Para possibilitar tais análises, têm sido desenvolvidos diversos conceitos teóricos e métodos que visam a melhoria do processo produtivo. O conceito de externalidades e o método de Análise do Ciclo de Vida (ACV) fazem parte desse arcabouço. A partir de sua aplicação, tornam-se possíveis a adoção de medidas que busquem a utilização sustentável dos recursos naturais e a redução da geração de resíduos pelas atividades produtivas. No Brasil, muitas empresas vêm buscando a redução dos resíduos gerados e, ainda, utilizam a reciclagem como instrumento de “eficiência ecológica” e fonte complementar de renda. Os números indicam que, a reciclagem, além de reduzir o volume de dejetos na natureza tem sido responsável pela geração de emprego e renda, o que torna possível a inclusão de diversos cidadãos ao mercado de trabalho.------------------------------------------The expansion of the production levels searched actually aiming at the increasing of employment and income generated by the economy and the maintaining of the consumption standards demanded by society cause an increasing pressure on natural resources. The analysis of the process and products generated by the industries would become feasible the adoption of measures capable of obtaining more efficient results. To make possible such analyses several theoretical concepts and methods have been developed that aim the betterment of the productive process. The concept of externalities and the method of Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) make part of this device. From its application the adoption of measures that search the sustainable utilization of natural resources and the reduction of the generation of wastes by productive activities are made possible. In Brazil many enterprises have been searching the reduction of the wastes generated and, still, use recycling as an instrument of “ecological efficiency” and as a complementary source of income. Numbers indicate that recycling, besides reducing the volume of wastes in nature, has been responsible for generation of income and employment, what makes possible the inclusion of many citizens into the work market.
