Abstract

Increasing waste production presents substantial environmental and public health obstacles, necessitating inventive and sustainable waste management approaches. This chapter explores the fundamental concepts of circular economy and how it may be used to change waste management systems from linear disposal methods to sustainable and efficient models that make the most of resources. It explores the influence of efficient waste management on diminishing environmental deterioration, fostering resource preservation, and bolstering economic development through waste materials' reuse, recycling, and repurposing. The chapter highlights the importance of adopting comprehensive strategies that combine technology advancements, policy restructuring, and community involvement to enable a shift toward circular waste management practices that will support attaining global sustainability.
