RESUMO

The situation of solid waste in Brazil is worrying, especially with regard to final disposal, as the increase in the wasteâs generation was not followed by a growth of infrastructure. The environmental issue, with the onset and worsening of environmental problems become more important to humans. Most of these problems is due to industrial waste origin, as much of these are classified as hazardous and it has a huge diversity. Then, it came up the concept of sustainable development. This concept sought to show that the industrial growth could go along with the ecological balance. However, to include sustainable development in the subject of industrial solid waste requires a management program to manage of those that prioritize the minimization, sourceâs reduction, wasteâs reuse and recycling and the adoption of programs for cleaner production. The oil industry (refineries), are the major generators of waste solids, liquids and gases with high pollution potential due to their complex composition. The Lubnor â Lubricants and Oil Derivatives of the Northeast is a unit of PETROBRAS which was inaugurated in 1966 as ASFOR â Asphalt Plant in Fortaleza. Currently, it has three units of processing (the Vacuum Distillation Unit â UVAC Unit, Natural Gas Processing â UPGN and Unit of Naphthenic Lubricants â ULUB), having as their main products the asphalt, lubricants, fuel oils, natural gas and LPG (liquefied petroleum gas). The Lubnor has a Management Plan for Solid Waste that follows the rules of the system PETROBRAS. In this work were shown the waste most commonly generated by the Lubnor, the managementof those, as well as the classification according to NBR 10004. The results are based on data collected from 2005 to 2009, the residue class II-B had a total average generation of 85%. Among the five years, the year of 2006 was the only one in which the amount of waste was lower than the generated discarded, leaving it with a percentage of 50.5%. Already the year 2008 was the largest amount of waste generated, and even with a percentage of rejection of 96.6% was the year in which the remaining residue was higher. Among the residues studied in greater details are: oily sludge (flex pig, oily rags and paper), silicate, organic waste, rubble (construction) and laboratory waste. The first generation was greater in the year 2008 (37.8%), the second, in the year 2009 (70.8%), the third in the year of 2008 (28.5%) and fourth (41.5%) and fifth (45.8%) in the year 2008. It also presented some practices to minimize the generation of waste adopted and applied in Lubnor and a more detailed study of the waste generation in 2008, where the oily sludge alone accounted a total of 4.22%, the metal packaging contaminated 34, 6% and waste contaminated with oil or chemical product 27.79% (this result does not include building rubble). Finally, there is a management summary in the year 2008
