In Brazil, municipal public authorities are responsible for construction and demolition (C&D) waste management. However, there is a lack of specialized personnel and financial resources that jeopardize the implementation of adequate C&D waste management practices. The main objective of this article is to present a framework developed with the purpose of modeling the C&D municipal waste management processes. First, through a literature review, the following were identified: the functions and the logic flow of the C&D waste management processes, and activities carried out from waste generation to its final disposal. The scope of the modeling cycle includes six processes: waste generation, collection/transport, inspection, recycling, reuse, and final disposal. Through the framework application, it is possible to identify the processes developed in C&D waste management (As–Is modeling), and the deficiencies and improvements necessary to enhance the entire system (To–Be modeling). The framework could be used as a tool to increase productivity, recycling rate, and improve the quality of recycled products, which are the key elements towards the integration of waste management and circular economy.

建筑和拆除废物管理过程建模：巴西框架

在巴西，市政公共当局负责建筑和拆迁（C＆D）废物管理。但是，缺乏专门的人员和财务资源，这不利于实施适当的C＆D废物管理做法。本文的主要目的是提供一个开发的框架，其目的是为C＆D城市废物管理流程建模。首先，通过文献综述确定了以下内容：C＆D废物管理流程的功能和逻辑流程，以及从废物产生到最终处置所进行的活动。建模周期的范围包括六个过程：废物产生，收集/运输，检查，回收，再利用和最终处置。通过框架应用程序，可以确定在C＆D废物管理中开发的流程（按原样建模），以及增强整个系统所必需的缺陷和改进（按原样建模）。该框架可以用作提高生产率，回收率和提高回收产品质量的工具，这是废物管理与循环经济相结合的关键要素。
