Chinese cities are experiencing rapid urban development while facing severe challenges of environmental pollution. China's central government has proposed several policies to reduce waste. However, little is known about the adoption these policies. Here, we raise question how can circular be classified, and this classification applied in China that wish become zero-waste cities? We develop a framework classify waste according to: (a) "5R" principles ("Rethink", "Reduce", "Reuse", "Recycle", "Recover"), (b) four types (industrial, agricultural, municipal, hazardous) (c) six policy instruments (legal, economic, network, communication, innovation projects). use analyze implemented by sixteen demonstration projects China. The present study emphasizes combinations instruments, "R" strategy type implementation find "Rethink", "Recycle" have been widely local authorities contrast "Reuse" "Recover". Local governments address management embracing regulations, project arrangements, network-based, or communicative used less often. Based on results suggest embrace comprehensive approach deploy diverse portfolio instruments.

Circular economy (CE) adoption is spreading worldwide, and it aims at decoupling the creation of value from resource consumption, leading to sustainable responsible production consumption as highlighted in Sustainable Development Goal 12. The circular transition will ask for transformation companies workforce, both qualitative quantitative perspectives. set required skills be influenced by transition, while degree implementation activities depend on availability adequate skills. Nevertheless, extant literature has not reached a consensus which competences are few studies have approached this topic all. This paper presents systematic review identify categorize that can facilitate practices manufacturing companies. identified were systematically organized within structured framework extending Porter's Value Chain. Leveraging review's findings, proposes series ideal job profiles manufacturing, outlines some preliminary education training paths. research contributes current body practical understanding "human dimension" manufacturing.
