Resumen:
This report is based on applying the tool of Analysis of Failure Modes and Effects (FMEA)
with the aim of identifying environmental aspects and practices in the microelectronics
industry in the city of Campina Grande – PB. In the theory, shows that there are several tools
to carry out works related to environmental management, and that the FMEA can be adapted
for this purpose in order to analyze the points at which a company may cause environmental
damage and what measures should be taken to mitigate these damage, and then a useful tool
for assessing the environmental impacts of production processes. Regarding the methodology
used, we conducted a survey characterized as exploratory and descriptive, using the case
study. The data were treated qualitatively and quantitatively using the parameters established
with the purpose of measuring the environmental impacts, for use with the FMEA tool.
Through the application of the tool, we found that the studied company performs various
types of disposal of waste chemicals, electronics, packaging and materials used in the
production process from its two manufacturing processes, generating 13 different topics and 6
considered of low intensity, 3 medium or moderate and 4 high intensity, among which 2 of
the waste and potential impacts are not properly eliminated, 6 are eliminated partially, and 5
are eliminated altogether.
