Item Turning Waste into Solutions: Waste to Energy Plant as a Key to Mitigate Soil and Air Pollution(2024-05) Balcar, RómuloSummary— Nowadays, the city of Parana faces a series of challenges which have not been addressed effectively. Among them, one of the problems is soil and air pollution, mainly caused by the wrong management and organization of garbage dumps in the city. This can cause health and hygiene problems for the neighbourhood residents near the Parana garbage dump. The main purpose of this project is to address the problem related to soil and air pollution in the neighbourhood near the Paraná garbage dump. A possible solution to this problem is the construction of a waste-to-energy plant.Item Soil Contamination by Plastics: Collection and Recycling of Plastic Waste from the Paraná Landfill(Docentes de la Cátedra de Inglés I, 2022-11) Cian, Paulina; Ibarra, Bruno; Machado Riquelme, MariamThe soil is one of the most important natural resources and it is a non-renewable resource. Soil is essential to life, like water and air. Its preservation is essential for food security and our sustainable future. In the last years, it has become more evident that the activities of the man have created situations in which the rate of soil loss is greater than its formation. This dangerously alters its natural balance, and one of the processes that influence its deterioration to a greater degree is pollution by plastics. The purpose of this presentation is to address the problem of soil contamination by plastics in the landfill of the city of Paraná and to discuss a solution emphasizing the importance of plastics collection for future recycling. El suelo es uno de los recursos naturales más importantes y es un recurso no renovable. El suelo es esencial para la vida, al igual que el agua y el aire. Su preservación es fundamental para la seguridad alimentaria y nuestro futuro sostenible. En los últimos años, se ha vuelto más evidente que las actividades humanas han creado situaciones en las que la tasa de pérdida de suelo es mayor que su formación. Esto altera peligrosamente su equilibrio natural, y uno de los procesos que influyen en su deterioro en mayor medida es la contaminación por plásticos. El propósito de este trabajo es abordar el problema de la contaminación del suelo por plásticos en el basural a cielo abierto de la ciudad de Paraná y discutir una solución haciendo hincapié en la importancia de la recolección de plásticos para su futuro reciclaje.
