Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a technology of Industry 4.0 that is currently being pointed out as a mechanism capable of helping in the construction of smart and sustainable cities. Within this context, solid waste management (SW) is one of the problems of cities to be solved. Thus, this article carried out a systematic review with bibliometric analysis, seeking to understand the relationship and the application of IoT in SW management. For this, the work was divided into four stages: Searching for articles in the database, Meta-analysis, Bibliometric analysis and Systematic analysis. The data search was carried out in the Scopus database, selecting the articles using the PRISMA method. In the meta-analysis, bibliometric and publication-specific data were extracted. The bibliometric analysis stage was performed in a quantitative and qualitative way using software. In the systematic analysis, the information contained in the works was synthesized. The 28 articles included in the analysis were published between 2013 and 2020. The majority of authors and institutions come from countries in Asia and Europe, demonstrating the need for global expansion of studies. In the co-authorship and citation networks, there was little relationship between the authors of the documents. Regarding the co-occurrence networks between the words, there was a focus on the use of IoT technologies for automation of dumps in order to improve the management of SW. Finally, it became evident the great relevance of the use of IoT in the management of SW for the construction of smart and sustainable cities.
