Impact of the pricing policy on the environmental performance of urban waste management systems

This PhD. thesis has as main objective the evaluation of the environmental impacts derived from the application of unit base (variable) pricing systems for financing urban waste management. To this purpose, a pilot experience with variable pricing schemes which took place in the Portuguese city of Aveiro was chosen as case of study. The evaluation was mainly performed making use of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) as an analytical tool for measuring environmental impacts. Both modelling approaches of LCA (attributional and consequential) were used in order to perform a comprehensive environmental comparison between the situation found in waste management before and after the pilot experience

Recolha comunitária de lixo em São Tomé e Príncipe: guia de implementação de um modelo descentralizado e auto-sustentável ao nível da comunidade

Este Guia de Implementação pretende apoiar à colocação em prática de um sistema de recolha de resíduos urbanos a pequena escala (a nível de bairro ou comunidade) em locais onde não há recolha de resíduos por parte das autoridades locais ou onde esta existe mas não dá resposta às necessidades da população. O modelo baseia-se numa recolha de resíduos feita pela própria comunidade, sem a dependência financeira de ajuda externa.Camões - Instituo da Cooperação e da Língua, I.P. e Gabinete de Estratégia e Planeamento (Ministério de Trabalho, Solidariedade e Segurança Social)info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio
