Eco-friendly practices Smart technologies Innovation Environmental impact Economic opportunities This paper provides a comprehensive examination of the role of digital solutions within the frameworks of the circular economy, focusing on their potential to enhance sustainability and resource efficiency across various sectors. As the world grapples with pressing environmental challenges-such as climate change, resource depletion, and waste management-the shift from a linear economy (take, make, dispose) to a circular economy (reduce, reuse, recycle) has become increasingly essential. Digital technologies play a critical role in this transition by facilitating innovative practices that can lead to a more sustainable and resilient economy. The paper begins with an overview of the circular economy model, detailing its principles, objectives, and the significance of closing the loop in product lifecycles. This section highlights the differences between linear and circular approaches, illustrating the urgent need for systemic change in how resources are utilized and managed. The core of the paper delves into various digital technologies that underpin circular economy practices. Key technologies discussed include the Internet of Things (IoT), which enables real-time monitoring of resources and products, facilitating better inventory management, predictive maintenance, and efficient resource allocation, leading to reduced waste and improved operational efficiency. Blockchain technology provides transparency and traceability in supply chains, allowing businesses to verify the origin and lifecycle of materials, ensuring ethical sourcing and enhancing recycling processes while building consumer trust. Big data analytics plays a significant role by analyzing large datasets to gain insights into consumer behavior and resource usage patterns, crucial for designing products that meet sustainability criteria and for developing strategies to minimize waste. Additionally, artificial intelligence (AI) can optimize production processes and enhance decision-making by predicting demand, improving product design for longevity, and facilitating recycling processes through automated sorting and material recovery. In summary, our study reinforces the notion that digital technologies are pivotal in enhancing resource efficiency and sustainability within the circular economy. By improving energy efficiency and reducing waste throughout the product lifecycle, these technologies not only contribute to environmental goals but also provide economic advantages. However, to fully realize the potential of digital solutions in CE frameworks, stakeholders must address the associated challenges, ensuring a collaborative and supportive environment for innovation and technology adoption. Ultimately, the integration of digital solutions into circular economy practices can drive meaningful change toward a more sustainable future. 2025-02-20T09:38:37Z 2025-02-20T09:38:37Z 2024 Статья Kushch E., Grudina O., Sitokhova T.

description	This paper provides a comprehensive examination of the role of digital solutions within the frameworks of the circular economy, focusing on their potential to enhance sustainability and resource efficiency across various sectors. As the world grapples with pressing environmental challenges-such as climate change, resource depletion, and waste management-the shift from a linear economy (take, make, dispose) to a circular economy (reduce, reuse, recycle) has become increasingly essential. Digital technologies play a critical role in this transition by facilitating innovative practices that can lead to a more sustainable and resilient economy. The paper begins with an overview of the circular economy model, detailing its principles, objectives, and the significance of closing the loop in product lifecycles. This section highlights the differences between linear and circular approaches, illustrating the urgent need for systemic change in how resources are utilized and managed. The core of the paper delves into various digital technologies that underpin circular economy practices. Key technologies discussed include the Internet of Things (IoT), which enables real-time monitoring of resources and products, facilitating better inventory management, predictive maintenance, and efficient resource allocation, leading to reduced waste and improved operational efficiency.
