| Abstract | This article wants to highlight the importance of shifting from a global linear economy to a circular economy, given the level and fast diminution of availability of natural resources, the rapid deterioration of the quality of air as well as water and soil quality and of the impact upon natural ecosystems; at international level this type of concerns regarding the management of waste have acquired a dynamic character and a clear intent to identify the best solutions and technologies. The concept of circular economy shows us, very concisely, that in order to harmonize the in a sustainable manner the development needs of mankind in the long term, it is necessary to optimize the consumption of resources so that we waste as little as possible and reuse as much as possible. Improving the use of resources must reach such a threshold that the net quantity of natural resources consumed does not jeopardize the rate of natural recovery, making sure that there are enough left for future generations. The European Commission had defined the circular economy as being one where the aim is to prolong the value of products and materials and ensure economic prosperity by creating additional value through recycling and reusing. To this end, the research for this paper aimed at promoting a systemic perspective of the circular economy, identifying the necessary steps to operationalize this concept, developing inter-industry value chains, highlighting synergistic aspects in relation to the green economy. |
