El objetivo es analizar el consumo de agua embotellada en México con miras a una economía circular. El documento evalúa las tasas de consumo de agua embotellada y los factores causales clave. Además, compara el rol que juegan los sectores público y privado en la exacerbación de la demanda de agua embotellada. El documento implementó una revisión sistemática que identificó artículos principalmente de las bases de datos Web of Science y Scopus del 1 de noviembre al 31 de diciembre de 2022. Se utilizaron tres estrategias para el proceso de búsqueda, incluida la introducción de palabras de texto libre, la implementación de operadores booleanos y búsqueda de citas. La revisión sistemática se realizó de acuerdo con la declaración/metodología PRISMA. Cuarenta y ocho artículos fueron identificados después de la búsqueda completa. Los resúmenes indican que el consumo de agua embotellada es alto en México debido al suministro de agua potable convencional por debajo de la media. La mayoría de los clientes mencionaron razones organolépticas y de salud como factores clave que influyeron en su preferencia por el agua potable embotellada. Por el contrario, la demanda de agua embotellada contribuye a las botellas con alto contenido de tereftalato de polietileno, lo que contribuye a la degradación ambiental. La implementación de la economía circular puede reducir los efectos negativos asociados a través de estrategias de reducción y optimización. Se agruparon los hallazgos de varios artículos mientras se definieron las brechas clave y las áreas de mejora. El documento es fundamental para salvar la escasez de conocimiento sobre la economía circular y su aplicación en la industria del agua, al tiempo que proporciona recomendaciones para los responsables de la formulación de políticas.
