ABSTRACT Objective: Circular Economy is expected to promote economic growth by creating new businesses and job opportunities, saving materials’ cost, dampening price volatility, improving security of supply while at the same time reducing environmental pressures and impacts (European Commision, 2015). It has been estimated that eco-design, waste prevention and reuse can bring net savings for EU businesses of up to EUR 600 billion, while at the same time reduce greenhouse gas emissions. To see these benefits in manufacturing sector and how it can be adapted and implemented at different levels, this research carried out the drivers and barriers analysis that effect the circular economy transition in manufacturing industry. Method: A systematic literature review on circular economy drivers and barriers will result in required drivers and barriers to analyse the desired outcome. Result: The resulted drivers and barriers are analysed at different levels and groups gave a comprehensive picture of circular economy drivers and barriers that are influencing manufacturing sector. Limitation: Research is only carried out by considering academic Journal papers and Articles but there may be possibility of bias and under research done. And also, source for all papers is SCOPUS database which might not contain all the papers that are associated with circular economy. Other limitation may be the perceived scope of the research and keywords used to search the database.
ASTRATTO Obiettivo: si prevede che l'economia circolare promuova la crescita economica creando nuove imprese e opportunità di lavoro, risparmiando i costi dei materiali, riducendo la volatilità dei prezzi, migliorando la sicurezza degli approvvigionamenti e riducendo al tempo stesso le pressioni e gli impatti ambientali (Commissione Europea, 2015). È stato stimato che la progettazione ecocompatibile, la prevenzione e il riutilizzo dei rifiuti possono portare a risparmi netti per le imprese dell'UE fino a 600 miliardi di EUR, riducendo allo stesso tempo le emissioni di gas a effetto serra. Per vedere questi benefici nel settore manifatturiero e come può essere adattato e implementato a diversi livelli, questa ricerca ha condotto l'analisi dei driver e delle barriere che influisce sulla transizione dell'economia circolare nell'industria manifatturiera. Metodo: una revisione sistematica della letteratura sui driver e le barriere dell'economia circolare determinerà i driver e gli ostacoli necessari per analizzare il risultato desiderato. Risultato: i driver e le barriere risultanti sono analizzati a diversi livelli e i gruppi hanno fornito un quadro completo dei driver dell'economia circolare e delle barriere che influenzano il settore manifatturiero. Limitazioni: la ricerca viene effettuata solo considerando i documenti e gli articoli del Journal accademico, ma potrebbe esserci la possibilità di pregiudizi e di ricerche condotte. Inoltre, la fonte di tutti i documenti è il database SCOPUS che potrebbe non contenere tutti i documenti associati all'economia circolare. Altre limitazioni possono essere lo scopo percepito della ricerca e le parole chiave utilizzate per cercare nel database.
