Abstract

The expectations about the increase of solid waste generation are a global concern in order to mitigate the negative impacts caused by this scenario. Recent experiences show advantages in applying Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Urban Solid Waste (USW) management. Although, developing countries face many structural and governance barriers that limits the real potential of applying these technologies. This study presents a worldwide outlook about the application of AI in USW management and identifies the reality of Latin America countries in this new context. It is especially important to improve monitoring and to create data management platforms. Also, this study collaborates on the minimization of possible technological boundaries posed to Latin America region and besides, it can be considered a reference study for countries in similar conditions.
