Logística reversa e a Política Nacional de Resíduos Sólidos: uma revisão bibliométrica

Abstract

The analysis of environmental policies shows a global concern about the generation of solid waste, attributed to the environmental impacts caused by the traditional model of industrial production, which generates waste throughout the transformation process, from the collection of raw materials, even after the consumption of products. In this context, the importance of reverse logistics is evident, considered as an instrument of economic and social development, as it is responsible for the return of products to the production cycle, and for an environmentally appropriate final destination. In order to answer the following question: What is the evolution of research on reverse logistics from the 12,305 law that instituted the PNRS? This study has as general objective to present an evolution of the national scientific production on reverse logistics, starting from the institution of the PNRS. Aiming to meet this objective, a descriptive research with a quantitative approach was carried out. The SPELL database was used to collect the data, which were the benefits from bibliometrics. The results of the bibliometric analysis indicated that reverse logistics is an emerging theme, revealing a lack of research and the need for more attention from the scientific community. Hold on, as a recommendation, for future research: use of more than 1 database and use of other works, such as theses, dissertations and monographs
