PROPUESTA DE VALORIZACION DE LOS RESIDUOS ESPECIALES GENERADOS EN LA EXTRACCION DE ACEITE DE PALMA AFRICANA - EXTRACTORA OLEORIOS. PROVINCIA DE LOS RIOS, VIA VENTANAS.

Abstract

This article is framed within the environmental context to develop as a main objective a proposal for the recovery of special waste generated within the process of extracting palm oil from the ¨Oleorios¨ extractor; which do not have any type of integral management being deposited directly to an open area. This study seeks to eliminate the improper disposal of special waste that has negative effects on human health and nature by using a circular economy system, specifically the implementation of composting. The two proposed methods of composting: inverted batteries and stacks with passive aeration become highly viable alternatives, both monetarily and ecologically. This would allow the company to adjust to the extended responsibility of the producer since its palm oil partners would receive this organic fertilizer, obtain benefits for their crops, and generate savings in the company's budget by avoiding payment of fines of non-compliance due to contamination episodes to the resource water, air and soil.
