A Review of the Connections Between Lean Mudas and Green Wastes

In addition to the operational concerns of today's businesses, environmental and social goals have increased the interest in lean and green paradigms. This study focuses on waste (waste), a common focal point of lean and green; it aims to discover the connections between lean and green waste. The protocol adopted a flexible approach to including/excluding studies on lean waste and green waste that were of interest to different disciplines, and a semi-systematic literature review method was used. According to the findings, publications examining individual connections between lean and green waste types are limited and scattered. Lean waste types have direct/indirect connections with green wastes, especially energy-material consumption, emission release, and these connections have attracted attention in the literature. In fact, studies on wastes and their connections have evolved into studies on business performance in recent years. This study will provide insight to businesses for eliminating lean and green waste, which is essential for economic and environmental impacts. It is important for this study to contribute to the synergy that can be created by combining lean-green paradigms with a waste perspective in industrial and academic settings.
