The study is located in the El Recreo neighborhood of Ambato and focuses on a technical analysis of a defined 200 x 200-meter grid. This area is in a state of critical deterioration, characterized by a complete lack of functional green infrastructure— technically registering a value of zero per inhabitant—and a high rate of soil sealing. Given this scenario, it is crucial to apply sustainability indicators such as urban tree diversity and perceived green space to mitigate the urban heat island effect. The proposed approach argues that introducing green infrastructure into public spaces mitigates the heat island effect, noise, and air quality issues, thereby enhancing livability without compromising the functionality of the existing built environment. The methodological process employs direct observation and graphic synthesis techniques using base mapping, within the framework of ecosystem-based urban planning and the Sustainable Compact Neighborhoods methodology. Variables related to mobility, biodiversity, and urban metabolism were evaluated to design an efficient biotic support network that ensures physical proximity to local basic services. The final proposal implements a vegetation network articulated by pocket parks and native vegetation along roadways, achieving greater diversity in urban tree cover. This physical intervention redesigns the public road network to prioritize pedestrians, reducing noise by five decibels and regulating ambient temperature by twelve degrees Celsius. The comprehensive transformation ensures a resilient urban system focused on community well-being and the proactive restoration of ecosystem services vital to the city.

This research addresses the problem of gypsum waste from dental impression moulds, a material that, despite its potential for reuse, is often discarded without proper treatment, generating negative impacts on the environment and public health. From an industrial design perspective, the development of a composite material made from recovered plaster, mixed with resin and fibreglass, is proposed for possible application in non-clinical production sectors. The methodological process included the collection, cleaning, grinding, calcination, and reprocessing of discarded gypsum, followed by the manufacture of test specimens subjected to tensile, impact, and flexural fatigue tests. The experimental results support the use of recycled dental gypsum as a viable resource in composite materials, especially in applications where impact resistance and resource sustainability are prioritised. This study validates the technical and environmental feasibility of reusing dental waste, proposing a sustainable model based on the principles of the circular economy. In addition, it promotes the implementation of accessible material recovery systems within dental clinics and laboratories, reducing operating costs and contributing to the reduction of hazardous waste. It is concluded that reused plaster represents an opportunity to innovate in clinical waste management, contributing both to environmental sustainability and to the diversification of industrial uses of the material, and laying the foundations for future regulations and applied research in the field of responsible design.
