Abstract: This article analyzes the management of solid urban waste in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, looking at current legislation, the characterization of waste, the increase in its generation and current disposal practices, with a focus on landfills. It also explores the physical and chemical degradation processes in landfills and discusses treatment alternatives, such as generating energy from waste (Waste-to-Energy - WTE), including examples of how biogas can be used. This study provides a complete overview of the urban solid waste landscape in the state, highlighting challenges and opportunities, and offers valuable insights for improving the management of this waste, aligning with legal guidelines and exploring more sustainable solutions. The analysis of degradation processes and the focus on innovative technologies such as WTE reflect the search for more efficient and environmentally responsible approaches to municipal solid waste management.
