The broad lines of actions were set when launching the application for Rio de Janeiro to host the event, a fact which took place in October 2, 2009. The waste management for 2016 is still lacking quantitative information of it s generation, premises needs adapting for the period of the event, as well as setting targets for the management of waste properly aligned with the principles of sustainable development . The objective of this study is to evaluate the concept of sustainable development within the waste management during the 2016 Olympic Games in the city of Rio de Janeiro. The methodology is a historic survey of the Olympic Games with special detail on issues related to the concept of sustainable development and waste management, analysis of the Pan American Games in Rio de Janeiro, field survey of the preparation of the London Olympics, field observations in the city of Rio de Janeiro and data analysis to calculate the estimate of waste generation during the Games in 2016.
