Para responder a esses objetivos, foi aplicado um question?rio aos 367 agregados familiares distribu?dos em 14 bairros da cidade sobre a forma como os res?duos s?lidos domiciliares s?o tratados e o seu impacto na sa?de p?blica dos residentes. Aliado a isso, o question?rio buscava responder sobre a proveni?ncia dos residentes (migra??o) e sua condi??o socioecon?mica. Para al?m do question?rio, recorreu-se ? entrevista semiestruturada, a qual foi aplicada ao setor de saneamento e de urbaniza??o do conselho municipal da cidade e ao Servi?o distrital da sa?de, mulher e a??o social. Acerca dessas t?cnicas de coleta de dados, desenvolveu-se tamb?m uma revis?o da literatura para a fundamenta??o te?rica e discuss?o mais profunda do assunto, assim como para observa??o sistem?tica do fen?meno. Da pesquisa averiguou-se que o servi?o de coleta de res?duos s?lidos efetuado pelo Conselho Municipal n?o obedece aos procedimentos consagrados no Regulamento sobre a Gest?o de Res?duos S?lidos, que preconiza gest?o ambientalmente segura, sustent?vel e racional dos res?duos, devido ao lan?amento a c?u aberto em lix?o. Ademais, essa coleta n?o abrange a todos os mun?cipes, por raz?es de ordem financeira, t?cnica e organizacional. Em suma, o estudo constatou que mais de 90% dos agregados familiares pesquisados se auxiliam do enterro, da queima e da deposi??o nas ruas como forma de tratamento dos seus res?duos s?lidos; e destes, na sua maioria, registram maior frequ?ncia de problemas de sa?de p?blica (doen?as de diarreia e da mal?ria), principalmente os residentes nas ?reas suburbana e periurbana. A partir disso, s?o propostas formas de gest?o de res?duos s?lidos domiciliares mais sustent?vel e espacialmente adequadas por meio da reciclagem, da coleta seletiva, da compostagem, da reutiliza??o e da redu??o da produ??o dos res?duos. / This study analyzes the process of generation and management of solid waste in the Municipality of the City of Chibuto-Mozambique, drawing on the different approaches towards allocation and the socio-environmental implications resulting from this process and waste spatial distribution. To answer these objectives a questionnaire was administered to 367 households distributed in 14 neighborhoods of the city to elicit information on how solid waste is treated and what could be its impact on public health of the residents. From this perspective, the questionnaire gasp information from immigrant residents regarding both their origin, and socio economic condition. Apart from the questionnaire, semi-structured interviews were conducted to staff working on the Sanitation Sector, Urbanization Sector of the Chibuto Municipality, including the Health Service, and Women and Social Affairs. In addition to these data collection methods, for further discussion on the subject, the researcher draw a theoretical framework grounded through literature review, as well as systematic observation of the phenomenon. Research findings revealed that the solid waste collection services provided by the Chibuto Municipality do not follow the procedures laid down in the Regulation on Solid Waste Management, which advocates environmentally safe, sustainable, and complete management of waste. First, the services use open dumps for waste management. Secondly, waste collection does not cover all citizens living in the neighborhoods governed by the municipality, due to financial, technical, and organizational reasons. More importantly, the study found that due to this failure, more than 90% of households surveyed continue to use the traditional methods on waste management which include burning, or the burial techniques. On the other hand, some citizens throw waste on the streets, a method that threatens public health because it increases cases of diseases related to sanitation problems such as (diarrhea and malaria), especially in suburban and peripheral urban areas. Concerning with the above mentioned problems which constitute a real threat to the public health, some ways are proposed for more sustainable and spatially appropriate solid waste management through recycling, waste sorting, composting, reuse, and reduction of solid waste generation.
