Oportunidades de melhoria na gestão de resíduos em empresas distribuidoras de eletricidade: o caso da AES Eletropaulo

A gestão de resíduos em distribuidoras de eletricidade é bastante complexa, pois enquadram-se em vários tipos (valorizados ou não) e gerados em grande quantidade. Em 2009, a AES Eletropaulo gerou quase quatro mil toneladas de resíduos não perigosos, subdivididos em 30 tipos. Uma divisão por materiais, após desmontagem e separação dos diferentes materiais contidos nos fios, cabos, chaves, isoladores com ferragem e para-raios, subiria o valor da venda em R$ 600 mil. Isso geraria cerca de 214 toneladas de porcelana que, moídas, poderiam substituir as 210 toneladas de brita compradas anualmente pela concessionária para uso em subestações. Cerca de 160 toneladas de porcelanas intactas poderiam ser utilizadas na confecção de gabiões para contenção de encostas. Além disso, peças de ferro galvanizado poderiam ser decapadas e novamente galvanizadas para reaproveitamento.

Ciência de serviços no Brasil: proposta de aplicação aos agronegócios

Ao se verificar nas últimas décadas a composição dos setores econômicos nos chamados países desenvolvidos e em desenvolvimento, nota-se um grande avanço e predominância do setor de serviços na composição de seu Produto Interno Bruto, chegando a ser na maioria dos casos o mais importante setor gerador de divisas, emprego e desenvolvimento. A Ciência de Serviços (CS) traz hoje a necessidade estratégica de políticas públicas, de ensino profissional e de pesquisas para o fomento e desenvolvimento desta Ciência no Brasil como fator estratégico para garantir uma maior competitividade da economia brasileira. A partir da hipótese de utilização da CS e de uma revisão bibliográfica do tema, buscou-se evidenciar suas potenciais aplicações no agronegócio, de maneira que este se torne mais eficiente, coordenado e sincronizado com o avanço dos serviços na composição da economia contemporânea nacional.
