Resumo(s)
The technical and operational implementation of smart waste management
methods is a complex and time-consuming process and therefore there is a strong resistance
to its adoption by the public. At the same time, we live in an era marked by the existence of a
greater desire for change driven by environmental and social concerns and technological
development towards smart city implementation. In this scenario, it is essential, at this point,
to draw the portray of the Portuguese awareness concerning intelligent waste management
existing projects and evaluate the population's receptivity to these implementations.
To obtain the data from the public, an online questionnaire was implemented, and 626
responses were obtained. From the data collected, the Portuguese population is largely
unaware of the existence of new waste management methods (82% are unaware of their
existence), existing, however, great openness (80%) to their implementation.
