- Abstract
The National Solid Waste Policy completed its first decade of existence, so it is relevant to evaluate some of the results obtained by law. For that purpose, the data from the Panorama of Solid Waste in Brazil published by the Brazilian Association of Urban Cleaning and Special Waste Companies for the years 2010 e 2018 were analyzed for each region of the country. The brief analysis of the performance of the selected indicators (municipal expenditure, generation, collection, selective collection, reverse logistic, consortium, final disposal and recycling) allowed us to conclude that the evolution of solid waste management in the period was discreet. Although, there have been advances in the scope of regular collection and selective collection, closure of dumps, disposal in sanitary landfills, Brazil remains one of the largest solid waste generators in the world and recycling is still a great challenge.
