Aplicación de un modelo sistémico para el manejo de los residuos sólidos en la universidad Santo Tomás seccional Bucaramanga

Abstract

Systems theory proposes to understand urban systems based on their relationship with ecosystems that have an impact on the activities proper to their operation. This relationship is material and energetic, but also of organization and information. This degree work presents a proposal for solid waste management at the Santo Tomás University, taking into account the previous theory, articulating the activities that take place there through organizational forms to the natural and artificial cycles; which are the set of practices, procedures, processes and resources necessary to reduce environmental impacts, comply with current environmental regulations and build a sustainable campus model. The proposed solid waste management system articulates teaching and research to social projection with the aim of helping society achieve sustainable lifestyles.
