Quema de residuos, contaminación y riesgos sanitarios. Un análisis de caso en Argentina

Abstract

Este artículo plantea que la quema de residuos domiciliarios está creciendo al ritmo de la expansión residencial en la zona sur de la ciudad de Posadas, Argentina. Se trata de un estudio inédito y exploratorio que ofrece un breve diagnóstico de la contaminación ambiental por material particulado. Del amplio repertorio de contaminantes que libera la quema de residuos, el estudio toma el PM2.5 como un contaminante criterio e identifica lugares y horas de mayor afectación, prácticas de quema, conductas de riesgos, etc. Al margen de la contaminación ambiental, la práctica de la quema afecta a la calidad del aire y conlleva potenciales efectos nocivos en la salud pública. La evidencia recabada permite sostener que la quema de basura es el problema ambiental más peligroso que enfrenta hoy la ciudad, y por las características del fenómeno, se advierte que se están acelerando las emisiones de material particulado y contaminante.

Este artigo refere que a queima de resíduos domésticos está a crescer ao ritmo da expansão residencial na zona sul da cidade de Posadas, Argentina. Trata-se de um estudo inédito e exploratório que oferece um breve diagnóstico de contaminação ambiental por material particulado. A partir do amplo reportório de poluentes libertados pela queima de resíduos, o estudo assume o PM2.5 como um “poluente critério” e identifica locais e horários de maior afetação, práticas de queima, comportamentos de risco, etc. Além da poluição ambiental, a prática das queimadas afeta a qualidade do ar e tem potenciais efeitos nocivos na saúde pública. A evidência recolhida permite defender que a queima de resíduos é o problema ambiental mais perigoso que a cidade enfrenta hoje e, devido às características do fenómeno, alerta-se para o facto de estar a aumentar a emissão de material particulado e poluente.

This paper purports that the burning of household waste is growing at the same pace as residential expansion in the southern area of the city of Posadas, Argentina. This is a novel, exploratory study that provides a brief diagnosis of environmental pollution by particulate matter. Out of the wide range of pollutants released by waste burning, the study took PM2.5 as a “benchmark pollutant” and identified the places and times of the greatest impact, burning practices, risky behaviors, etc. Aside environmental pollution, the practice of waste burning affects air quality and has potential harmful effects on public health. The evidence gathered shows that garbage burning is the most hazardous environmental issue facing the city today, and the characteristics of the phenomenon indicate that emissions of particulate matter and pollutants are accelerating.
