Abstract
Manufacturing, a vital global economic sector, drives growth and innovation. However, its environmental impact is significant. World Economic Forum statistics from March 2022 reveal that production sectors consume 54% of global energy and contribute to 20% of carbon emissions. These factors lead to global warming and climate shifts, emphasizing the need to integrate green practices into manufacturing. Industry 4.0, driving digital transformation in manufacturing, offers potential to mitigate environmental effects. Technologies like IoT, big data analytics, AI, and additive manufacturing play key roles. This paper conducts a systematic literature review, analyzing research to explore sustainability through Industry 4.0 in manufacturing. Findings present a framework integrating lean production, life cycle assessment, circular economy, zero-defect manufacturing, and supply chain management with digital technologies. The goal is to achieve environmental sustainability in energy efficiency, waste management, resource efficiency, and emission control domains.
