摘要:A Today we live many transformations, it is perceived that the lifestyle of people, has been causing changes. A very recent example of these changes are solid waste, which has compromised environmental quality, and the quality of life of man judging by the socioeconomic, health and environmental impacts inherent to them. The residues of the health services (RSS) are part of this problem and have been assuming great importance in recent years. This concern has grown due to knowledge about the risks posed to public health and the environment. The present study aimed to present technological alternatives in the treatment and final disposal used in RSS management. This is a simple, bibliographic descriptive study. Data collection was achieved through information from the electronic libraries. It is noticed, however, that there are many technologies of RSS treatment, with different characteristics, in terms of costs, safety to the environment and the population, among others. It should be noted that those processes that have a low cost are not considered safe and biodegradable and that there is a need to know all the characteristics of these processes so that there is a choice of the most appropriate treatment, and this suitability may vary .
