“…Products and processes are the main units of analysis identified in literature and on which Design for X practices are implementable. As far as the products are concerned, existing research points to Design for Recycling, Design for Remanufacturing and Reuse, Design for Disassembly, and Design for Environment (Marconi, Germani, Mandolini, & Favi, ; Urbinati et al, ). All of these practices are required if companies are to support the end‐of‐life of the products and products' circularity (Mendoza et al, ; Moreno, De los Rios, Rowe, & Charnley, ).…”

“…In addition, the Internet of Things—although its practical effects are still unclaimed and under experimentation—can support the monitoring, analysis, and control of products' data in order to support their lifecycle and extend their replacement along the entire supply chain (Da Xu, He, & Li, ). Moreover, the Internet of Things can be used as a digital enabler of circular economy together with (a) system optimization models, (b) real‐time measurement, (c) big data analysis and process control, (d) smart integration of tools and methods, and (5) data mining techniques, to help quantify resource efficiency (Akter & Wamba, ; Marconi et al, ; Witkowski, ). In addition, additive manufacturing technologies (also known as 3D printing) can be used to support the design for assembly and re‐assembly, by producing modular and customized products for customers in places that are close to them, thus exploiting a localization advantage.…”

“…Fourth, there is still a lack of empirical evidence on how digital technologies, such as those involved in the concept of Industry 4.0, are applied in practice by companies to reach specific circular economy targets (de Sousa Jabbour et al, ; Marconi et al, ). This calls for a better understanding of how these technologies can properly support the supply chain of actors (customers, suppliers, institutions, etc.)…”

Designing business models in circular economy: A systematic literature review and research agenda

et al. 2020

The concept of circular economy is increasingly receiving attention in different domains, including strategic management, operations management, and technology management. It requires companies to design their business model (i.e., the value network, the relationships with the supply chain partners, and the value propositions towards customers) around a new concept of sustainable development that reduces consumption of natural resources and preserves the environment. However, extant research falls short in terms of explaining how companies design their business model according to the circular economy principles. Starting from this premise, the present paper provides a systematic review of the literature on the design of business models in the context of circular economy, aiming to offer an overview of the state of research and outline a promising research agenda.

“…Bressanelli et al [24] explored how CPS, IoT, and BDA can improve remanufacturing performances in terms of monitoring, data gathering and process optimization of washing machines. Marconi et al [50] presented a method for calculating the disassembly times of target components in washing and coffee machines. Data mining has been used to derive corrective factors that are useful in designing new products.…”

Integrating Virtual Reality and Digital Twin in Circular Economy Practices: A Laboratory Application Case

et al. 2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The increasing awareness of customers toward climate change effects, the high demand instability affecting several industrial sectors, and the fast automation and digitalization of production systems are forcing companies to re-think their business strategies and models in view of both the Circular Economy (CE) and Industry 4.0 (I4.0) paradigms. Some studies have already assessed the relations between CE and I4.0, their benefits, and barriers. However, a practical demonstration of their potential impact in real contexts is still lacking. The aim of this paper is to present a laboratory application case showing how I4.0-based technologies can support CE practices by virtually testing a waste from electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) disassembly plant configuration through a set of dedicated simulation tools. Our results highlight that service-oriented, event-driven processing and information models can support the integration of smart and digital solutions in current CE practices at the factory level.

“…As far as the products are concerned, existing research points to the "Design for X" practices and the efficient use of resources. As for the "Design for X" practices, existing research points to Design for Recycling (DfR), Design for Remanufacturing and Reuse (DfRe), Design for Disassembly (DfD) and Design for Environment (DfE) [9,21]. All these practices are required if companies aim to support the end-of-life of products and circular products [22,23].…”

Managing the Introduction of Circular Products: Evidence from the Beverage Industry

The aim of this paper is to study what managerial practices companies follow and implement in their business model to manage the introduction of Circular Products. Extensively screening extant literature in the field, we clustered a set of relevant managerial practices in four main principles of Circular Economy (CE) adoption at the product level: (i) Energy efficiency and usage of renewable sources of energy; (ii) Product and process optimisation for resource efficiency; (iii) Product design for circularity; (iv) Exploitation of waste as a resource. Then, the adoption of these principles was tested on two companies (and three Circular Products) operating in the beverage-packaging industry, where the adoption of CE is further challenged by the fact that packaging is necessary to deliver the product to consumers, but the majority of the one-way packaging is discarded after use. The identified principles provide general objectives in terms of end goals that should be achieved in order to adopt CE and manage the introduction of Circular Products. This paper shows a practical implementation of these principles on real empirical cases for theory-testing scopes.
