Abstract

This investigation explores the utilization of clustering techniques within the realm of sustainable agroindustrial discourse to categorize temporal relationships and innovations in the existing literature. Employing a systematic literature review (SLR) methodology, guided by the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) framework, this research concentrates on environmental sustainability and economic viability. The study emphasizes the necessity of a comprehensive approach that amalgamates technological, economic, and environmental considerations to evaluate the areca palm's potential as an industrial resource. Central to this inquiry is the environmental sustainability associated with areca nut production and utilization, aiming to uncover its novelty as an industrial crop. Furthermore, this research illuminates the relevance of contemporary publications and influential scholars in the field, offering insights into prominent research trajectories, seminal works, and prospective areas for future exploration. The study juxtaposes various sustainable agroindustrial research methodologies, including environmental life cycle assessment (E-LCA), social life cycle assessment (S-LCA), cost life cycle assessment (C-LCA), and life cycle sustainability assessment (LCSA). A detailed account of the SLR process is provided, encompassing the initial literature search, selection parameters, and the utilization of diverse scientific databases to amass 650 comprehensive publications. By investigating the areca nut's potential as a sustainable industrial raw material, this study addresses a gap in the literature and furnishes valuable insights for policymakers, practitioners, and academics engaged in sustainable agro-industrial practices. Consequently, this research makes a substantial contribution to the understanding of areca nut's viability as a sustainable resource in agroindustrial applications.
