Abstract

This research is an exploratory study presenting the Design for Environment - DfE as an environmental management practice in Industrial Ecology in the product development cycle. DfE analyzes all stages of the product life cycle: development, manufacturing, use and final disposal proposing changes in the design, to minimize the environmental impact of the product. To analyze the literature on the subject, this research conducts a Systematic Bibliographic Review - RBS on DfE and identifies related practices. The RBS performed can be divided into three stages: planning, processing, and results. In the planning stage, the objectives of the research are defined, concepts for inclusion and exclusion of the works to be analyzed, the identified original works and the materials and methods. The next step, processing, results in job mapping. In this stage, the analysis of the objectives of the articles allowed to observe the convergence for themes related to quality, innovation, strategy, environmental improvement, environmental assessment, tool, integration, sector or particular product studied. The third step, results, ranks the articles by authorship and research focus. Finally, these articles were analyzed, and a set of DfE-related practices available in the literature was classified according to the stages of the product development cycle.
