Although the potential of blockchain has been extensively recognized by scholars and practitioners across multiple fields, research on its adoption in framework circular economy (CE) is still scarce. In this context, study extends technology acceptance model (TAM) integrating technology–organization–environment (TOE) to holistically understand how technological perception factors (perceived usefulness perceived ease use) interact with organizational environmental influencing intention adopt CE within context Chinese automotive supply chain. Based survey data from 305 respondents companies, proposed hybrid TOE-TAM conceptual was validated. The results indicate that, except for effects knowledge management capability use regulatory support intention, all other hypotheses are deemed significant. Moreover, conducting an in-depth analysis evolution CE, not only deepens understanding disseminated but also provides valuable insights theory practice value

Nowadays the pace of production and consumption is reaching environmentally unsustainable levels. In this regard, great technological advances developed in recent years are postulated as a source opportunities to boost circular economy sustainable development. This wide range possibilities offered by new technologies create more reality has aroused curiosity interest academic world, especially years. The main objective research reveal challenges that arise when incorporating objectives economy. Regarding methodology, study been partially supported using bibliometric techniques. results highlight transformative role technologies, blockchain artificial intelligence, advancing economy, with particular emphasis on community technology integration, ethical considerations, synergies, business models, burgeoning bioeconomy. We conclude promise enhanced resource efficiency, optimized supply chains, innovative improved product lifecycle management, offering profound economic environmental benefits while fostering collaborative innovation. However, these also represent address, such integrating advanced methods, ensuring chain transparency, overcoming skill gap, avoiding data centralization, adapting regulatory frameworks foster equitable growth. These some most important areas for further research, those related development employees' capabilities adaptation frameworks, they understudied gaps.

Implementing blockchain technology in waste management is a novel approach to environmental sustainability and accountability challenges our modern world. Blockchain, that enables decentralized immutable ledgers, now being re-imagined as tool revolutionize management. This innovative aims improve transparency, traceability, efficiency, resulting significant economic benefits. In traditional systems, the tracking disposal of materials are not transparent can be vulnerable fraud, mismanagement, inefficiency. Blockchain provides secure platform for recording every step lifecycle, from generation collection, transportation, recycling, or disposal. Every transaction recorded tamper-proof manner, enabling real-time monitoring verification waste-related data. paper introduces concept using The main goal this work show implementation an existing company, smart contracts recycling process provide transparency. Also, digital product passport was redefined terms circular economy recycling.

Intelligent chatbots powered by large language models (LLMs) have recently been sweeping the world, with potential for a wide variety of industrial applications. Global frontier technology companies are feverishly participating in LLM-powered chatbot design and development, providing several alternatives beyond famous ChatGPT. However, training, fine-tuning, updating such intelligent consume substantial amounts electricity, resulting significant carbon emissions. The research development all LLMs software, hardware manufacturing (e.g., graphics processing units supercomputers), related data/operations management, material recycling supporting services associated emissions to varying extents. Attention should therefore be paid entire life-cycle energy footprints both present future order mitigate their climate change impact. In this work, we clarify highlight consumption emission implications eight main phases throughout life cycle chatbots. Based on interaction analysis these phases, propose system-level solution three strategic pathways optimize management industry footprints. While anticipating enormous advanced its products, make an appeal rethinking mitigation strategies usage reshaping environmental at early stage development.

The construction industry is a resource- and energy-intensive sector, and, thus, it has been criticised due to rising environmental concerns. As result, gained heightened interest in the concept of circular economy (CE) over last decade its ability promote slowing, reducing, closing production consumption cycles materials products used projects. Current research studies suggest that digital technologies may enhance industry’s integrate CE into practices. However, clear understanding technology (DT)-related barriers hinder practical implementation appears be lacking within sector. Thus, this study aims identify adopting DTs implement practices industry. A systematic literature review was conducted by reviewing twenty-eight (28) relevant papers published until March 2024 Scopus Web Science databases. VOS viewer software (version 1.6.11) perform co-occurrence analysis keywords new popular areas field. content analyse significant adapting industry; frequency Pareto analyses were determine most critical obstacles. This identified thirty-seven (37) using CE, categorised nine areas: organisational, infrastructure, regulatory, standardisation, investment, nature industry, technological, stakeholder, data-related barriers. Of these barriers, nineteen as based on analysis. These findings will benefit practitioners policymakers who want adopt

In recent years, the applications of digital technologies in sustainable construction have gained increasing interest. However, no comprehensive literature review has been conducted. Thus, this paper analyzes 990 relevant articles regard published from 2014 to 2023 by using CiteSpace (version 6.3.R1) and HistCite Pro 2.1) identifies most influential journals, institutions, regions. The knowledge base was detected through a cluster analysis, which concentrates more on seven core themes: barriers, energy efficiency building performance, life cycle assessment, computer vision, renovation, sustainability management. A citation analysis revealed that were based four dimensions construction: environmental, social, economic performance green assessment are current hotspots. Finally, potential future research trends field proposed: (1) strengthening application technologies; (2) expanding use Operation Maintenance (O & M) demolition phases; (3) deepening multi-objective optimization; (4) exploring how overcome obstacles. findings provide highly valuable information for researchers with ideas directions field. This also deepen practitioners’ comprehension optimal bolstering sustainability.
