Revisión bibliográfica de la gestión integral de residuos de construcción y demolición con riesgo por material particulado, un tema de salubridad e ingeniería ambiental y su relevancia en Colombia

Abstract

The research Integral management of construction and demolition waste (CDW) with emphasis on the risks associated with particulate matter, presents a qualitative methodology, focused on a documentary analysis, understood as a process of understanding in the approach to health and environmental engineering at national and international level. This study starts with the investigation of the panorama of construction and demolition wastes, identifying the problems they present; from this, an approach of the risks and dangers derived from particulate matter linked to human health is made. At the environmental level, the environmental impacts generated by these wastes on air, water and soil are considered, expanding these two factors, both environmental and occupational health and safety, to the application of policies and regulations set forth in national norms. Likewise, the environmental management of these construction and demolition wastes is evaluated under strategies that allow their reduction, highlighting the importance of prevention, impact minimization and sustainability. This article underlines the need for an integral management that protects the health of workers in these areas and the environment, offering a critical view supported by current literature.
