Technology and productive processes that results in little waste helps sustainability by competing with the balance between development and environment, especially when they break through the usual model based on extraction, processing and disposal, turning to operate guided by rational use of natural resources guided for circular economy values. The economic-environmental accounting would be balanced if instead of waste there was a return of used products to the productive processes (Xavier, 2017). To Brazil, which in 2019 produced an average of 0.99 kg/day per capita (Brazil, 2020) of household solid waste compared to about 0.75 kg/day per capita that was produced in 2002 (Brazil, 2009), this math is far from ideal, as 97% of consumer goods reach the end of their useful lives as waste and only 3% serve as raw materials for generating new products (Xavier, 2017). In a context of mobilization of society, government and science for sustainable development reverse logistics presents itself as one of the alternatives for solid waste management, as defined in Article 3, item XII of the National Solid Waste Plan (known in Brazil by the Portuguese acronym, PNRS).
