Aplicação web para controle de produtos químicos utilizados na Universidade Tecnológica Federal do Paraná - Campus Pato Branco

Abstract

The management of chemical products in laboratories is essential to ensure the safety of professionals and compliance with current regulations, in accordance with Law No. 10,357 of November 27, 2001. This legislation requires institutions to periodically provide information to the Federal Police regarding the consumption, stock, and use of controlled substances. UTFPR-PB offers a Chemistry program with laboratories that use such substances and, therefore, required an effective system to manage and report their usage. This study proposed the development of a web-based system to manage the purchase and consumption of chemical products used in the laboratories of UTFPR-PB. The lack of appropriate tools often led to the use of spreadsheets or manual records—methods prone to errors and inaccuracies. The proposed system was developed with the aim of centralizing information related to chemical products, allowing for the recording and monitoring of inventory, storage, movements, expiration dates, and safety regulations. This approach optimized report generation and ensured greater accuracy in the information provided to regulatory authorities. As a result, the institution began using a unified platform that facilitates access to information by authorized users and supports compliance with legal requirements, contributing to a more efficient, safer, and continuous control of chemical substances used in the laboratories.
