On the integration of Impact Assessment and Circular Economy: a literature review

“…Most of the overlapping articles (IA ∩ CE) use LCA as an impact assessment technique to analyze the environmental impact of Circular Economy measures. Some assessed technological alternatives (Muñoz et al, 2023;Santos et al, 2022) However, most of them are related to the LCA applied to the agriculture sector, such as (Ferronato et al, 2023), (Silalertruksa et al, 2022) and(da Costa et al, 2022) and who assessed alternative options for organic waste valorization and used LCA to assess its environmental impacts compare them with other treatment options. In this context, the Circular Economy (CE) is posed as a viable solution for supporting sustainable, restorative, and regenerative 'agriculture' in the current context of scarce resources, climate change, environmental degradation, and rising food demand (Velasco- Muñoz et al, 2021).…”
