Resumen

Objective: Propose to seek the critical understanding of the quality of evidence of the correlation between "Industry 4.0" and "Circular Economy" for implementing sustainable business processes.

Approach: The method adopted was a systematic review of the literature through a selective search in the CAFe database from CAPES journals, in the search "Subject", which includes all the available search bases.

Relevance: As for sustainability, the "Circular Economy" and "Industry 4.0", although they have different concepts, origins, and fundamentals, they connected to the viability of business models in the face of the socio-environmental, economic, and technological requirements of a current globalised ecosystem.

Main results: There has been a significant increase in the number of publications in the last three years (2019-2021), reflecting the interest in the topic through the development of scientific studies.

Theoretical contribution: The study presents the "Industry 4.0" brings several features that can support the transition to a "Circular Economy" system, rethinking practices of society's economic organization.

Contribution to management: The proposed process mainly contributes bringing from the Industry 4.0 several features that can support the transition to a "Circular Economy", given that the latter needs advanced resources for its implementation.
