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.

Internet of Things (IoT) plays an essential contribution in connecting devices and enabling seamless data exchange, leading to increased efficiency convenience. However, security concerns IoT systems are significant, as compromised can lead breaches privacy violations. Blockchain technology enhance by providing decentralized consensus, immutability, transparent transaction records, ensuring secure trustworthy communication integrity. This review article gives a succinct but thorough understanding blockchain technology, covering architecture blockchain, working principles, types, applications, platforms, its role the environment. The study highlights potential benefits like enhanced privacy, explores integration with IoT. Additionally, discusses various real-world examines addresses limitations challenges associated technology. serves valuable resource for researchers practitioners seeking deeper blockchain's implications landscape.

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

Last-mile logistics has emerged as a tool for responsiveness, however, requires dynamic business models and technology to integrate all the stakeholders. Blockchain is emerging platform supply chain problems due its prospective features, adoption slow unclear benefits diverse challenges it brings. This study explores relationship between last-mile practices (LMLPs), blockchain challenges, features benefits. Data are collected principal component analysis used rank practices. Finally, we measure impact of on LMLPs using regression analysis. The findings revealed that most important practice close partnership with customers, followed by state-of-the-art cybersecurity system. such transparency, real-time tracking, data-driven decision-making secure information exchange offer key benefits, including lead-time reduction enhanced flexibility in chains. However, policy uncertainty remains major challenge adoption.
