Centro de recuperação de computadores, Resíduos de equipamentos eletrônicos, Modelo teórico-operacional, Economia Circular, Gestão públicaResumo
A economia circular tem sido um desafio para todos os tipos de organizações em todo o mundo, com especial atenção às que compõem a gestão pública, para que se faça o reaproveitamento máximo do maior número possível de componentes dos inúmeros produtos descartados todos os dias, especialmente os eletroeletrônicos. Neste sentido, este estudo teve como objetivo propor um modelo teórico-operacional de centro de recuperação de computadores, alinhado aos princípios da economia circular, para a inclusão digital e a inovação na gestão pública. Foi utilizado o método bibliográfico conceitual em suas quatro etapas: formulação de questões, coleta de dados em bases de dados científicas digitais, análise e organização dos dados e geração de respostas às questões formuladas. Os resultados obtidos permitiram: 1) mapear as etapas do processo de recuperação de computadores; 2) identificar os possíveis componentes de um modelo teórico-operacional para centros de recuperação de computadores; 3) listar as contribuições de um possível modelo teórico-operacional aplicado a centros de recuperação de computadores para a economia circular; e 4) identificar a relação entre a proposta de modelo teórico-operacional para centros de recuperação de computadores e a economia circular. A conclusão mostra que o modelo proposto atende ao objetivo do estudo ao estruturar uma solução integrada e sustentável, consolidando o CRC como um instrumento técnico-operacional robusto para a prática da economia circular na gestão pública.
