Waste management
As with any activity, operations at logistics sites also consist of a source for solid waste generation, including organic and inorganic materials. GEOKLOCK developed an encompassing and objective plan for the environmental management of solid wastes for a major company in the logistics segment.
The purpose of this plan was to ensure the following tasks were carried out in a suitable manner:
- Collection;
- Containerization;
- Temporary storage;
- Transportation;
- Treatment;
- Adequate final disposal of the solid wastes generated by all of the company’s sites in Brazil;
- Minimization at the source, whenever possible.
Waste classification followed the applicable regulations in terms of:
- Handling;
- Means of selective collection;
- Temporary storage;
- Waste transportation that minimized environmental issues;
- Means to ensure the final destination of the waste materials complied with current Brazilian regulations.
GEOKLOCK also designed models for indicators for the management and planning of resources.
