Resumen
En Perú se generan residuos por día equivalentes a cuatro estadios nacionales, los cuales
no todos están siendo reciclados y terminan sin una correcta disposición final. El 78% podrían
ser transformados e insertados en una economía circular, pero solo el 1.8% se aprovecha.
Si bien hay esfuerzos en las instituciones educativas por segregar los residuos aún la
gestión de los mismos no es eficiente. En el sector educativo de Lima Metropolitana están
involucradas más de tres millones de personas entre colegios, institutos y universidades, todos
ellos generan residuos que pueden ser aprovechados.
En ese sentido, se propone crear ReciEdu, una EO-RS que brinda una solución para la
gestión de residuos sólidos en el sector educativo. ReciEdu busca promover el reciclaje mediante
programas de sensibilización y capacitación, así como el recojo y compra de residuos, como
papel, cartón, plástico y tetra pak, con el fin de promover una economía circular. Además, se
incluirá la compra de residuos a recicladores de la zona del centro de acopio. Finalmente, estos
residuos serán reinsertados en la cadena de producción a través de la venta a empresas
transformadoras y la fabricación y comercialización de contenedores de plástico reciclado.
El modelo de negocio genera un retorno financiero sostenible con un VAN de S/.
3,805,720 y una TIR de 180.4%, lo que garantiza una rentabilidad superior al costo de capital.
Además, cuenta con un VAN financiero que cubre la inversión inicial en un año y ofrece un
valor significativo a los accionistas, asegurando un crecimiento sostenido para ReciEdu. El
proyecto no solo promueve prácticas sostenibles y contribuye a los ODS 8 y 12, sino que
también presenta un VAN social de S/. 8,105,045, reflejando los significativos costos y
beneficios sociales.
El proyecto fue testeado confirmando su deseabilidad, factibilidad y viabilidad. Además,
es escalable con una mayor participación de mercado, en más distritos y otros sectores
económicos.
In Peru, daily waste generation is equivalent to the size of four national stadiums, with a significant portion not being properly recycled or disposed of. While 78% of this waste could be transformed and incorporated into a circular economy, only 1.8% is currently used. Despite efforts in educational institutions to segregate waste, their management practices remain inefficient. The educational sector of Metropolitan Lima, involving over three million people among schools, institutes and universities, represents a vast potential for waste recovery. In this sense, we propose to create ReciEdu, an EO-RS solution aimed at solid waste management in the educational sector. ReciEdu aims to promote recycling through awareness and training programs, as well as the collection and purchase of waste materials such as paper, cardboard, plastic and Tetra Pak, to foster a circular economy. Additionally, it includes purchasing waste from local recyclers. These materials will be reintegrated into the production chain by selling them to processing companies and manufacturing recycled plastic containers for commercialization. The business model generates a sustainable financial return with a Net Present Value (NPV) of S/. 3,805,720 and an Internal Rate of Return (IRR) of 180.4%, ensuring profitability above the cost of capital. It also features a financial NPV that covers the initial investment within a year and provides significant value to shareholders, ensuring sustained growth for ReciEdu. The project not only promotes sustainable practices and contributes to SDGs 8 and 12 but also presents a social NPV of S/. 8,105,045, reflecting substantial social costs and benefits. Finally, the project has been tested, confirming its desirability, feasibility, and viability, with potential for scalability to capture a larger market share, expand into more districts, and enter other economic sectors.
