Global instability can be seen as a reflection of the increasing demand for natural resources and the reduction of personnel expenditures. Yet, this is often associated with industrial systems, whose main objectives are to increase productive capacity and reduce costs. This scenario identifies the need for changes in strategy establishment in the organization's operation mode focusing on sustainable development. Industrial ecosystems, through the symbiotic relationship of industries, aim to achieve sustainability goals. Material flow mapping is essential for the construction of these industrial ecosystems. Hence, the present article carries out a structured literature review process in order to identify the state of the art and the research opportunities in material flow mapping. This aims to achieve industrial ecosystems through industrial symbiosis. For the accomplishment of this revision, the methodological procedure called Knowledge Development Process – Constructivist (ProKnow-C) was adopted. The bibliographic portfolio is represented by 35 articles of the research theme. Through the bibliometric analysis, some aspects are determined in order to perform a statistical analysis of the articles that compose the portfolio. In general, the main opportunities detected in this research theme are presented in the systemic analysis. Finally, conclusions and recommendations for future research are presented.
