description The generation of waste is increasing globally and its poor utilization causes serious environmental, economic and social issues. The aim of this work was to analyze the state of the art on urban, agricultural and livestock solid waste in terms of quantity and composition, as well as to analyze the concept of biorefineries from the viewpoint of their design as a sustainable alternative for the use of residual raw materials. The information was consulted in different databases such as Web of Science, Scopus, and Google Scholar. The analysis of the information identified that the residues are produced in considerable amounts and have valuable organic compounds, which are used to a greater or lesser extent according to technological, cultural, and socio-economic factors in each specific region. New policies are needed for the integral management of solid waste that integrates the concept of biorefineries from the generation and separation at the source to its utilization and final disposal. The proper implementation of physical, thermochemical, chemical, and biological processes under the concept of biorefineries can recover or transform in an integral way the residual raw materials to obtain products such as biofuels, food, and energy. Designing biorefineries to determine their viability for waste utilization is required. Exploring this type of alternatives by evaluating different factors (techno-economic, environmental, and social) may support the decision making of investment and research in utilization technologies to be implemented on a small or large scale in regions of Colombia and the world with great waste availability.

La generación de residuos se está incrementando a nivel global y su deficiente aprovechamiento provoca serios problemas ambientales, económicos y sociales. El objetivo del presente trabajo fue analizar el estado del arte de los residuos sólidos urbanos, agrícolas y pecuarios en cuanto a cantidad y composición, así como analizar el concepto de biorrefinerías desde su diseño como una alternativa sostenible para el aprovechamiento de materias primas residuales. La consulta de la información se realizó en diferentes bases de datos como Web of Science, Scopus y Google Scholar. El análisis de la información permitió identificar que los residuos se producen en cantidades considerables y poseen compuestos orgánicos de valor, que son aprovechados en mayor o menor proporción de acuerdo con factores tecnológicos, culturales y socio-económicos en cada región particular. Son necesarias nuevas políticas para la gestión integral de los residuos sólidos que integren el concepto de biorrefinerías desde la generación y separación en la fuente hasta su aprovechamiento y disposición final. La implementación adecuada de procesos físicos, termoquímicos, químicos y biológicos bajo el concepto de biorrefinerías puede recuperar o transformar de forma integral las materias primas residuales para la obtención de productos como biocombustibles, alimentos y energía. Se hace necesario diseñar biorrefinerías para determinar su viabilidad en el aprovechamiento de los residuos. Explorar este tipo de alternativas evaluando diferentes factores (tecno-económico, ambiental y social), puede apoyar la toma de decisiones de inversión e investigación en tecnologías de aprovechamiento para ser implementadas a pequeña o gran escala en regiones de Colombia y el mundo con gran disponibilidad de residuos.
