“…Within the automotive industry, there are increases in fuel and resource costs, as well as societal demand for responsible manufacturing, which drive the constant improvement and innovation of the automotive industry citing its significant fuel consumption, resource usage, and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Yijie Liu et al [23] estimate that the automotive industry "significantly reduce the demands for various auto materials and pollutant emissions to produce a unit automobile." Despite the fact that exhaust emission regulations for European passenger cars have been in force for more than 20 years, the desired improvements in air quality have not yet materialized [24].…”

“…According to the literature [18][19][20][21][22][23], these six basic criteria for choosing green industrial products are the key principles of the circular economy. The circular economy is restorative and regenerative by design, and it aims to keep products, components, and materials at their highest utility and value at all times (ISO 20400:2017).…”

This article utilized a multicriterial quantitative and qualitative analysis of the influence of eco-friendly methods in reducing emissions over the life cycle of automotive products. The new proposed multicriterial method is applicable where preferential criteria are independent of each other, and where uncertainty has not been incorporated into a formal model. The linear model showed how the values of several criteria related to the options could be combined into an overall value. The main objective of this research was to apply a multicriterial methodology to improve the accuracy of existing approaches in identifying the influence of eco-friendly methods to reduce emissions over the product life cycle, and to assist decision makers in the manufacturing process. The research questions were as follows: Which one of two automotive products ("Bus" or "Truck") has the best environmental performance (EPP)? Which one of two automotive products ("Bus" or "Truck") has the best overall environmental performance (EPAPL)? This research provided a detailed comparative analysis of a "Crosstown bus" and a "Tractor truck", both made at the Industrial Park Romania Brasov, Romania, using a multicriterial analysis. This article provided an answer to the first research question, whilst only presenting the results for the second question. The results of the proposed multicriterial method applications provide a decision support base for environmental managerial decisions in the field of automotive production processes.

“…Life cycle assessment is highlighted by scholars Boutkhoum et al (2016); Junnila et al (2018); Niero and Kalbar (2019); Van der Voet et al (2018). Hence, resource efficiency (Huang et al, 2017;Iuga, 2016;Lozano et al, 2018;Michelini et al, 2017;Milios, 2017;Muranko et al, 2017;Nußholz, 2017;Pan & Li, 2016;Popa & Popa, 2016;Reuter, 2016;Smol et al, 2017;Walker et al, 2018;Wilts et al, 2016) or eco-efficiency (Blomsma & Brennan, 2017;D'Amato et al, 2017;Gregorio et al, 2018;Guo et al, 2016;Kalmykova et al, 2016;Liu et al, 2018;Rizos et al, 2016) are considered to be one of the most important components of circular economy.…”

Research background: The value of clusters in developing advanced technology products and services as well as promoting regional growth is acknowledged by many policymakers and researchers (Lee et al., 2012). Hence, clusters are identified as enablers of the circular economy and resource efficiency in this study. Companies aim to enhance competencies and create competitive advantages in global competition and this can be achieved through pulling from a common and accessible pool of resources, information and demand for innovation which means that companies can profit from belonging to a cluster. Purpose of the article: The main aim of the article is to overview the scientific literature that addresses the circular economy, identify clusters and their role in the circular economy and suggest how small and medium enterprises could engage in a circular economy through clusters' performance development. Methods: Bibliometric literature analysis enables identifying the latest trends in scientific articles regarding a circular economy and clusters. The analytical hierarchy process (AHP) allows for composing the scheme of the cluster’s competitive advantage within circular economy. Findings & Value added: The findings suggest that resource efficiency is considered to be one of the most important ambitions and clusters can work as enablers of a circular economy for small and medium enterprises (SMEs), gaining a competitive advantage at the same time. Clusters can encourage and provide conditions in which SMEs would turn to a circular economy. The scheme of Cluster's competitive advantage proposed by the author can help cluster's coordinators, policymakers and all the concerned parties to verify the importance of clusters' involvement in the circular economy.
