Abstract

Emissions of pollutants and their consequences for the atmosphere have received special attention from international organizations in recent years due to the climate crisis predicted in the next decades. In this regard, the Carbon Dioxide (CO 2 ) produced in industrial sectors is one of the most concerning compounds because of its impact on global warming and climate change. This study developed a systematic review of Carbon Dioxide Emissions from manufacturing industries considering one decade of research documents focused on addressing this problem. For this, different assessments such as the trend of published articles, top-cited studies, the network evaluation of journals, and keywords network evaluation were conducted. After a careful data-driven analysis, research trends were identified. Findings revealed the increased urgency of finding and assessing information regarding the climate crisis due to CO 2 emissions as well as revealing which main sectors and research areas have been involved in its investigation. Furthermore, the most influential contributions and clusters of words obtained demonstrate interrelationships among research trends that are focused on finding new paths to generate more sustainable processes in every manufacturing industry. This study aims to generate valuable insights into the role played by manufacturing industries in the context of the environmental situation, revealing trends and key points among the scientific community.
