“…In this phase, we considered the amount of waste that each municipality sent to these units, independently of the location of units. Then, we considered the plastic percentage among total waste, based on the literature for each kind of waste, where plastic percentage in civil construction waste is 2.29% (Llatas, 2011;Miranda et al, 2009;Mancini et al, 2007;Marques Neto, 2003), for health services waste is 14.39% Schneider et al, 2000;Aduan, 2009;Moreira, 2012), and for domestic and public waste is 13.23% -14.75% (Abreu and Vilar, 2017;Lino and Ismail, 2011;Gutierrez-Gomes et al, 2021;Silva et al, 2021;Nordi et al, 2017;Drudi et al, 2019;Spinola et al, 2019).…”
