Abstract

Currently the excessive demand for solid resources is affecting ecosystems and generating negative impacts on the environment, one of these reasons is the generation of solid waste, therefore there is a need to provide methods, techniques, and procedures to reduce these impacts. The objective of this work was to determine the different solid waste management treatments for a sustainable final disposal during the 2017-2022 period. For this, a systematic review of 206 articles found in the Scopus andScienceDirect databases and search engines was carried out; of which 21 articles were selected that met our selection criteria. Finally, it was determined that there is a predominance of studies for the treatment of municipal and organic solid waste, while the most applied methods for said waste are composting, vermicomposting, incineration for energy generation, in addition to awareness and recycling, finally all these methods offer a sustainable final disposal.
