Abstract
Esta tesis explora los factores claves que influyen en la valorización eficiente de los residuos sólidos municipales orgánicos (RSMO) en la Provincia de Concepción, Chile, a través de la aplicación del marco de análisis DAFO (Fortaleza, Debilidad, Oportunidad, Amenaza). Mediante la categorización y el análisis de los factores desde cinco perspectivas -social, política, económica, medioambiental y territorial- la tesis pretende descubrir qué motiva e impulsa la valorización en curso. Actualmente no existe en Chile una separación y valorización organizada y a gran escala de los RSMO. Alrededor del % de los residuos orgánicos municipales en Chile se mezclan con los residuos no orgánicos y se depositan en rellenos o vertederos, lo que amplifica varios problemas ambientales, especialmente la emisión de gases de efecto invernadero. Esto se debe principalmente a la falta de políticas nacionales que obliguen a separar y valorizar estos residuos. No obstante, en los últimos años han surgido diversos proyectos de valorización de RSMO. El objetivo de esta tesis es comprender mejor cómo se puede aumentar, ampliar y mejorar la valorización de los RSMO. No sólo en esta región, sino también en otras regiones del Sur Global que comparten contextos similares.
This thesis explores the key factors that influence the efficient valorization of organic municipal organic solid waste (RSMO) in the Province of Concepción, Chile, through the application of the SWOT (Strength, Weakness, Opportunity, Threat) analysis framework. By categorizing and analyzing factors across five perspectives—social, political, economic, environmental, and territorial— the thesis aims to discover what motivates and drives the ongoing valorization. Currently there is no organized, large-scale separation and valorization of organic municipal solid waste in Chile. Meaning that about 98 % of organic municipal waste in Chile gets mixed with non-organic waste and landfilled, which amplifies several environmental issues, especially the emission of greenhouse gases. This is mainly due to the lack of national policies that oblige this waste separation and valorization. Never theless, a variety of RSMO valorization projects have popped up in recent years. The purpose of this thesis is to better understand how RSMO valorization can be increased, ex panded and improved. Not only in this region, but in other regions in the Global South, that share similar contexts, as well.
