Resumen

The Covid-19 pandemic has impacted society and its living spaces, especially the most vulnerable urban environments. In face of this pandemic, which has been going on for more than two years, the world population has had to adapt to the new ecosocial challenges spread by this global health crisis, especially with regard to urban solid waste. That said, the objective of the work was to analyze the scientific production on Covid-19 and its relationship with the management of urban solid waste, using a bibliometric approach and the content of publications between 2020 and 2022. The data were obtained through from the Web of Science, in a period from March to April 2022, from the titles, abstracts and keywords analyzed using the VOSviewer software. The results revealed a significant growth in scientific production, with a progress of 329% between 2020 and 2021. From the total of 93 publications, the challenges, impacts, recycling and management of urban solid waste were the most debated topics among the productions scientific studies included in this bibliometric study, with an international dimension. It was found, therefore, that the urban waste generated with the pandemic is also vehicles for the transmission of the coronavirus, representing a risk to the population and social actors who act directly in the different forms of collection, treatment and final destination. However, as a limitation of the study, it was also found the need for empirical research that includes the perception of social actors regarding the generation and management of urban solid waste.
