Chemical engineering plays a pivotal role in advancing the principles of a circular economy, where the focus shifts from the traditional linear model of "take, make, dispose" to a more sustainable, regenerative system. Chemical engineering for circular economy integrates waste reduction, resource reuse, and recycling into industrial processes, enabling the design of systems that minimize environmental impact and maximize resource efficiency. One of the core aspects of chemical engineering in the context of a circular economy is the development of closed-loop processes, where materials are continuously recycled or reused within the system, reducing the need for virgin resources. This approach is particularly important in industries such as plastics, textiles, and electronics, where the accumulation of waste has significant environmental consequences.
