💻 The integrated management of urban solid waste (IMUSW) is considered a challenging task due to the multiple dimensions that make up the system, its changes over time and the fragility of financial sustainability in the sector. Knowing the tools that enable the analysis of this complex system is important to help decision makers in waste management. Thus, this article aims to present the tools, and indicate the most suitable ones to be used to analyze the behavior and interrelation of the elements that affect the financial sustainability of municipalities in the IMUSW over time. As a result, when considering IMUSW systems, System Dynamics (SD) presented advantages over other static tools and methods of operational research due to their complex, changeable and recognizable nature from real world elements.  This study provides important contributions for future research and IMUSW management planning, as it provides information on the most relevant and current tools for the development of studies focused on waste management and the financial sustainability of the system.
