Abstract

Turning from linear to circular business model, from cradle-to-grave to cradle-to-cradle and from waste to wealth, the concept of circular economy (CE) has become an important tool to promote sustainable develop-ment as it combines economic, environmental and social benefits at a local as well as global scale. In the shift towards CE, examining the CE from the perspective of its potential is crucial for its wider and more effective implementation in the practice. The aim of the paper is to clarify a circularity phenomenon in closed-loop econ-omy under the notion of potential in part of (1) the structural elements, (2) underlying categories and (3) basal properties as a follow-up to the previous studies about managing the circularity potential. The study provides the theoretical framework for understanding circularity potential by developing the circularity potential categoriza-tion in order to get a comprehensive picture of what has been done in the past and where efforts are most need today to achieve a progress towards circularity in the future. The basal properties of circularity potential such as integrity, dynamism, territorial affiliation and different strategies compatibility were revealed and discussed for managing the circularity potential. The findings of the paper have ambition to contribute to new metrics devel-opment to measure the progress towards zero-waste and CE aimed at identification and monitoring all the possible forms of the circularity potential – opportunities, reserves, available resources, rather than the available resources only that were primarily considered in the past attempts at the operationalisation of circular economy.

Waste management beyond the COVID-19 pandemic: Bibliometric and text mining analyses

“…Sustainability and using the potentials of the circular economy (cluster #3) has constructed the third research theme of WM research taking COVID-19 into account in the target literature. The circular economy approach, as a tool to promote sustainable development at the local and global scales, has gained momentum ( Shevchenko et al, 2021c , 2021a). In this regard, sustainability, supply chain, recycling, circular economy, resilience, raw material, reuse, and sustainable development goal have appeared frequently within the context of research in this area.…”

Nutritional aspects and dietary benefits of “Silkworms”: Current scenario and future outlook

“…It is envisioned that environmental degradation can be avoided if agricultural producers’ commercial interests and customer quality demands are both respected. The circular economy concept is also worth considering in the context of sustainable development because it helps to reduce raw material consumption and trash generated during production by utilizing waste as substrates for subsequent activities ( 14 ). In this context, silkworms can be deployed as an alternative proteinaceous food source with lower greenhouse gas emission potential, helping to synergize the SDG target and alleviate the effects of climate change.…”

Innovation Vouchers as a Modern Financial Tool for the Development of Smes

“…Another region of the Czech Republic, Ostrava, also shows successful support for technology transfer in the field of biotechnology through innovation vouchers (Matulova, Stemberkova, Zdralek, Maresova, & Kuca). Green financial instruments in the Western Balkans are seen as essential for achieving sustainable development goals (Luksic, Boskovic, Novikova, & Vrbensky, 2021;Doranova, Griniece, Miedzinski and Reid;Shevchenko et al, 2021;Kholiavko et al, 2021). In Italy, innovation voucher programs have a regional context.…”
