Resumen

El pensamiento del ciclo de vida (PCV) se considera un estudio cualitativo porque describe los impactos ambientales de un producto o proceso. Esta percepción le permite identificar los efectos potenciales y los recursos utilizados, permitiéndole estructurar ideas sostenibles, identificando y desarrollando soluciones innovadoras. Establecer el Ciclo de Vida de un producto requiere planificar y comprender las etapas de la cadena productiva, evaluación continua de los procesos y sus funciones ambientales, desde la extracción de la materia prima, el transporte, el proceso de fabricación, la entrega al cliente y la disposición final. Aunque la PCV se considera una filosofía, el Analisis del Ciclo de Vida (ACV) es un método científico cuantitativo que permite expresar este pensamiento. A través de conceptos y herramientas del ciclo de vida, es posible definir las etapas del ciclo de vida de un producto, ayudar a los tomadores de decisiones en el análisis de datos e implementar la sostenibilidad con estrategias y acciones apropiadas. Sin embargo, el objetivo de esta revisión es describir conceptos y definiciones sobre PCV y ACV. Se espera que los investigadores puedan garantizar una verdadera sostenibilidad en la producción, lo que requerirá una evaluación cuidadosa y múltiples consideraciones basadas en una reflexión profunda sobre el ciclo de vida de un producto.
