The pulmonary circulation system does not serve the metabolic needs of the body tissues directly, but only the lungs.

Capillaries
pulmonary circulation the flow of blood from the right ventricle through the pulmonary artery to the lungs, where carbon dioxide is exchanged for oxygen, and back through the pulmonary vein to the left atrium.

Systemic circulation is the flow of blood from the left side of the heart, through the tissues of the body excepting pulmonary tissues, and emptying into the right atrium of the heart. Pulmonary circulation is the flow of blood from the right side of the heart through the lungs to become freshly oxygenated and empties into the left atrium.
Pulmonary - carries oxygen-depleted blood away from the heart, to the lungs, and returns oxygenated blood back to the heart. Systemic - carries oxygenated blood away from the heart to the body, and returns deoxygenated blood back to the heart.
The systemic veins and heart transfer waste-filled blood from the tissues into the pulmonary circulattion. The sytsemic veins bring waste-filled blood to the right atrium, which pumps it into the right ventricle, which pumps it into the pulmonary circulation.
