RESUMO
The technological development, the industrial growth, the sped up process of urbanization and the population growth had transformed geographic the space brazilian. Added to the change of habits and consumption it caused and it comes causing diverse ambient problems. The incentive to the exchange and the investment in dismissable products, had led to a significant increase of the generation of solid wastes. To treat and to give an adequate destination to the great amount of wastes have been a great challenge to the brazilian authorities. So that it has better management and management of the solid wastes are necessary to know what he has been generated, that is, which the amount and that type of material is discarded. To know this production well, the best way is to make a study of the generation and gravimetrical composition of the solid wastes through its physical characterization. Therefore, the proposal of this work was to make a current survey of the generation of the household waste in the city of Sao Carlos. This inquiry will not only take in account the wastes that arrive at it fill with earth bathroom through the conventional collection, but also the ones that they arrive at the central offices of selection through the selective collection, using itself as main instrument its physical characterization. They stand out, in the results, the percentage of household wastes, in mass: organic matter (59,08%), paper and cardboard (6,44%), tetra pak (0,94%), glass (1,67%), metal and aluminum (1,31%), plastics 10,47% (2,84% of rigid plastics and 7,63% of plastics films) and other (garbage) (20,09%). It was observed that the percentage of materials that could be returned in the market and they are being deposited in the sanitary landfill, it is still high, considering what the selective collection was introduced in the municipal district in 2002.
