    Diseño de un servicio de asesoría e implementación en la gestión integral de residuos sólidos
    (Universidad EAFIT, 2021) Montoya De Francisco, Juan Sebastián; Mejía Gil, María Claudia
    Solid waste, better known as “garbage”, is one of the problems that society currently faces. The mismanagement that is given to solid waste and the current economic model of consuming and disposing of it have caused a negative environmental impact and an intense consumption of natural resources that has caused a great increase in this waste in the world. In Colombia, since 2003, the legislation for the correct management of solid waste began to be implemented, however, there is still no conclusive result that has allowed an effective solution to this problem. Since 2007 in Medellín and its metropolitan area legislation was developed on the correct management of solid waste that includes a Comprehensive Solid Waste Management Plan (PMIRS). Despite the existing legislation, the solid waste recovery rate in Medellín is barely 17%, compared to European cities like Copenhagen where the waste recovery rate is around 80%, which shows an important opportunity of business in this sector. Of the 2,000 tons of urban solid waste (MSW) that Medellín produces per day, 1,100 are generated by families in homes and 900 by industries and SMEs. The objective of this research is to design a service that advises and implements the integral management of solid waste in the urbanizations of Medellín. For this research, 27 semi-structured interviews were carried out, with 7 different profiles of people who were related to the objective of the research, where it was identified that the factors that most motivate urbanizations to implement this service are: Education in waste management solid, saving money by avoiding fines and penalties and an environmental benefit since having good solid waste management, there will be less waste in landfills.
