Reaproveitamento de óleo residual para fabricação de sabão como ação de educação ambiental em uma escola pública de Manaus Amazonas

Abstract

The oil for frying food is trashed daily without following proper methods for it and it ends up being discarded in inappropriate places. Inappropriate frying food oil discharge creates several problems on our environment such as clogging of pipes (usually used for the sewer handling), soil and water contamination. Given the problem, one possible solution to avoid the oil to reach the environment is the ecological soap manufacturing using recycled oil. Given the presented scenario, the mail goal of this work is to discuss, design and create a process for soap manufacturing using collected recycled frying food oil from a local school in Manaus-AM, avoiding the oil to reach the environment and create more problems. Another goal of this work is to teach the students from the first year of High School about the risks of improper frying oil discharging on the environment teach environment education and alert about the impacts, contributing to the amazon biome.
