Waste Management of Production and Consumption as an Element of on the Circular Economy

Abstract

Practical aspects of the functioning of the Russian economy in the field of production and consumption waste management are considered. The main problems inherent in the sphere of production and consumption waste management in Russia are identified. The principle of waste management of production and consumption, defined in foreign practice in the theory of management as 3R, is considered. The difference between the traditional «linear» model of economy and the closed-loop economy is shown. Some business strategies that can be supported by a closed-loop economy have been studied, namely, the «product as a service» strategy, which can be applied independently or combined with other technological solutions, and the «sharing» strategy. The conclusion is made about the need to develop digital solutions in the industry for processing production and consumption waste.
