Abstract— The unbridled increase in the generation of solid waste,
especially electronic waste, due to its dangerousness, has been worrying the
world. The Judiciary, based on shared responsibility, has already been
promoting some sustainable practices to improve the environment and
society as a whole. The aim of this study is to contribute, with possible
improvements in the Solid Waste Technological Route (Toners) in the
Thomaz aquino Forum, an integral unit of the Judiciary of the State of
Pernambuco, Brazil, located in the central area of the city of Recife. The
methodology was carried out through a bibliographic survey, including
qualitative and quantitative research, by data collection, through
questionnaires, about the management of the Toner Technological Route of
14 offices, located in the Thomaz Aquino Forum, in order to propose more
effective adjustments and adjustments, in addition to expanding information
on the importance of knowledge and participation of all in sustainable
actions. The study is relevant, given the importance of adequate solid waste
management, which make it possible to contribute effectively to the
protection of the environment in order to avoid or minimize environmental
and institutional degradation, to provide subsidies to propose new actions in
updating the next Sustainable Logistics Plan (PLS), in order to achieve its
goals and objectives. It was concluded that the Court, although it works
positively in the realization of sustainable practices, still demonstrates
fragility of some measures from the simplest measures such as information
and guidance to the effective improvements, especially in the management of
electronic waste and its technological routes.
I. INTRODUCTION
In the context of the Third Industrial Revolution, in the
mid-twentieth century, society began to experience the
development of new products at a faster pace. The
possibility of creating more in less times and with fewer
human resources - due to technological advances and the
consequent automation of processes, generated a relevant
impact on the business strategy of large companies and
various sectors of the economy.
To increase the revenues of companies, it is
noticeable the tendency to reduce the durability of certain
industrialized products and the consequent need to replace
them more frequently, due to the launch of virtual products,
such as software and applications, because it forces the
exchange of physical products (hardware) because the old
models can not run this new tool. The waste strategy, based
on the programmed obsolescence of products (industrial and
virtual) has been further leveraged by globalization and
technological progress. (ROSSINE, 2017).
