REVERSE LOGISTICS APPLIED TO THE RECYCLING OF DISCARDED TEXTILE WASTE: A FEASIBILITY ANALYSIS

Abstract

When analyzing the impasses involved in the disposal of textile waste from clothing manufacturers, and their lack of knowledge about the 5S methodology and the practice of recycling, this research aims to analyze the technical and economic feasibility of reverse logistics for textile waste within the micro-enterprise Dascola, proposing an integrated and viable storage model. Regarding the methodology, it is applied research based on a case study and site visits, following a qualiquantitative approach. Thus, during the project, the storage methods were analyzed, as well as the most suitable one to be applied, considering the location's limitations and possible waste transport methods, obtaining promising results
