Proposta de um plano de recuperação para áreas de empréstimo na construção da usina piloto de Engenharia de Alimentos no Campus da UFCG em Pombal-PB.

Abstract

This work was carried out at the Federal University of Campina Grande (UFCG), Pombal-PB Campus, Brazil, and aimed to prepare a recovery proposal for the loan areas used in the construction of the Food Engineering Pilot Plant. For the development of the study, the following steps were carried out: recognition of the area; description of the pre-degradation scenario and the post-degradation scenario; identification of significant environmental impacts; definition of the recovery strategy; elaboration of a monitoring plan; and elaboration of the environmental prognosis of the area. These methodological steps were carried out by means of bibliographic research, field visits, photo documentation, soil analysis and Environmental Impact Assessment methodologies: “Ad Hoc”, Check Lists and Interaction Matrix. Based on the results, it was observed that the environmental factors most affected by environmental degradation in the study area were: soil, flora and landscape, respectively. The suggested future use of the area was environmental preservation. The main recovery techniques indicated were: isolation of the area; soil aeration; green manure and reforestation. The monitoring plan developed is indispensable for assessing the progress of the recovery and the environmental prognosis aimed at estimating the environmental conditions of the area after the recovery process.
