Abstract
This paper reviews sustainable manufacturing practices by integrating environmental, economic, and social dimensions of sustainability, emphasizing that environmental aspects are most frequently addressed (53.8%), followed by economic (34.6%) and social (11.5%) dimensions. Key findings identify crucial practices for sustainability across materials, products, processes, and supply chains, particularly sustainable materials derived from natural, renewable, or waste sources. An analysis of 17,694 articles highlights trends and gaps, linking practices to life cycle stages and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), notably SDG#9 and SDG#12. A proposed framework emphasizes continuous environmental performance improvement through quantitative analysis using the Life Cycle Engineering (LCE) framework, enhancing competitiveness and reducing environmental impact. The LCE framework case study demonstrates how waste materials, like plastic bottles, can be repurposed as raw materials, illustrating its value, especially for small and medium-sized enterprises, and highlighting the importance of integrating sustainability from the ideation stage.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
