1 Introduction
One of the biggest challenges faced by companies, according to Souza and Silva
(1997), has been adapting competitiveness with environmental management, in other
words, producing in an ecologically correct manner and with social responsibility.
Although the industry tries to make this conciliation, solid waste management,
resulting from the growing industrialization, remains a complicated environmental
issue (Souza and Silva 1997). The increase in industrial production, justified by the
increase in population density, results in an increase in products to be manufactured
and consumed. Roth and Garcias (2008) explain that the economic development of
society causes consumption to increase, consequently there is a high amount of solid
waste to be discarded.
Industrialization has provoked a movement of resistance and awareness on the
part of society in way that laws are being created in order to the present risks can be
controlled (Melo 2012), as in the case of Brazilian Federal Law No. 12305, August 2,
2010, establishing the National Solid Waste Policy—PNRS. It was created to regulate
environmental imbalances resulting from improper solid waste handling. Among
its objectives are the non-generation, reduction, reuse, recycling and treatment of
