The Federal District Integrated Recycling Complex (CIR-DF) contributes significantly to reducing the environmental impact of the waste produced by the metropolis of Brasilia, as it provides for the recycling of materials that would otherwise be taken to landfills and also employs around 450 collectors. That said, this work sought to monitor the air quality of the CIR/DF shed spaces, checking the concentration of CO2, temperature and humidity, in the period of intense heat and drought, relating the data with measures of adaptive comfort in order to contribute with space management. The results showed that the CO2 concentration is below 3,900 ppm in 48 hours per week indicated by NR 15. The temperatures verified between the six monitored days are, for the most part, below 50 % of the comfort zone and the humidity data are also below the 40 % limit indicated by NR 17. Thus, the Complex faces challenges related to the internal environmental comfort of the sheds, which can be improved by applying strategies for air renewal that are more appropriate to the location.
