Abstract

The present work aims to evaluate through the state of the art, as academic publications and the history of other actions, mainly as institutional, without sense of development or methodology called Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) in Brazil since its arrival in the country in the years. ninety to the first half of 2018. The bibliometric methods used are based on an international database called Scopus, a national, a Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations, and also have no history of studies related to studies during the period. studied, such as applicable legislation, standardization, congresses and everything else that contributes to terms of environmental impact awareness and steps towards national sustainability.

The main authors of national research centers for international article publications are the researchers Soares, S. R. (UFSC), Silva, G. A. (UFSCAR) and Ometto, A. R. (USP); and the main advisors of postgraduate work are the teachers Seabra, J. E. A. (UNICAMP), Ometto, A. R. and Silva, G. A. (UFSCAR), allowing the last two researchers and studying the teaching poles the most productive situation regarding to the LCA study in Brazil. This paper presents very useful information about the development of the LCA technique in Brazil and the paths to what is unfolding, thus presenting future trends of the study in the área.
