This requires a holistic,integrative viewpoint,spanning all aspects of design and development,and considering many supply chain actors. Circular Economy Supply Chains highlights the need for cross-industry flows and the need for different actors in circular value cycles. This book offers a comprehensive overview of system components and actors,including how the circular economy adds value,the role of producers and consumers,the spectrum of recovery possibilities,and the essential role of information management. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hardback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 464 pages\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 19 April 2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Emerald Publishing Limited\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA circular economy perspective holds the belief that we should design everything with the intention of maximizing its reuse for as long as possible, before it reaches the end of its useful life. When reuse becomes impossible, we should then reclaim and repurpose the materials. Implementing a circular economy ecosystem necessitates a broader, more holistic approach that considers all aspects of design and development, and involves a wide range of supply chain actors, extending beyond the traditional boundaries of supply chains.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCircular Economy Supply Chains emphasizes the importance of cross-industry flows and the involvement of various actors beyond producers and consumers in circular value cycles. While biomimicry serves as the framework for organizing the book, individual chapters build upon other theoretical lenses and concepts, such as stakeholder theory. This book aims to transcend the traditional buyer-supplier perspective, embracing a holistic network or ecosystem view that considers a cross-industry system perspective. A diverse range of actors is essential for a functioning ecosystem within a circular economy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis edited book provides a comprehensive exploration of system components and actors, covering topics such as the value added by the circular economy, the roles of producers and consumers, the range of recovery possibilities to return products back to the consumption supply chain, and the critical importance of information management. By examining these aspects, the book offers valuable insights into the complexities and opportunities of implementing a circular economy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 706g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 164 x 238 x 30 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781839825453\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shulph Ink","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44096458850554,"sku":"9781839825453","price":78.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1650633852364_book.jpg?v=1650747617","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/circular-economy-supply-chains-from-chains-to-systems-9781839825453","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
