Abstract

The aim of the present paper is to develop an integrated method that provide assistance to decision makers during system planning, design, operation and evaluation. In order to support the realization of Circular Economy (CE) it is essential to evaluate local needs and conditions that help to select the most appropriate system-components and resources needed. Each of these activities requires careful planning, however, the model of CE offers a comprehensive interdisciplinary framework. The aim of this research was to develop and to introduce a practical methodology for evaluation of local and regional opportunities to promote CE.
