Abstract

The circular economy is increasingly being considered as a potential model to replace the prevailing end-of-life approach by establishing a closed-loop flow. The importance of different supply chain (SC) actors in this process has been recognized as a critical aspect of the development of sustainable production-consumption models. Consumers play a crucial role in this context, as they have a dual function: ensuring the correct disposal of used products; and consuming products from circular sources. However, the different roles consumers play (refuse, rethink, reduce, reuse, repair, refurbish, remanufacture, repurpose, recycle, recover) in circular SCs are still unclear. Through a systematic literature review, this paper aims to contribute to a better understanding of the influence of consumers on the adoption of circular supply chain (CSC) practices and to identify the main drivers and barriers regarding the adoption of circular practices. The results demonstrate that the topic is recent and has gained ground in the literature. An in-depth qualitative analysis was carried out with the 74 papers identified and shows that the most commonly addressed R-strategies are reuse, recycle and repair. The main motivations and challenges towards a greater adoption of circular practices are related to (or lack of) environmental beliefs and financial benefits.

消费者在采用 R 战略中的作用:综述与研究议程
循环经济正日益被视为一种潜在的模式,可通过建立闭环流动取代目前普遍采用的报废方法。在这一过程中,不同供应链(SC)参与者的重要性已被认为是发展可持续生产-消费模式的一个关键方面。消费者在其中发挥着至关重要的作用,因为他们具有双重功能:确保正确处理废旧产品;消费循环来源的产品。然而,消费者在循环可持续消费中扮演的不同角色(拒绝、反思、减少、再利用、维修、翻新、再制造、再利用、循环、回收)仍不明确。本文通过系统的文献综述,旨在帮助人们更好地理解消费者对采用循环供应链(CSC)实践的影响,并确定采用循环实践的主要驱动力和障碍。研究结果表明,该主题是近期的研究热点,在文献中的地位不断提高。对 74 篇论文进行了深入的定性分析,结果表明,最常见的 R 战略是再利用、再循环和维修。更多采用循环做法的主要动机和挑战与(或缺乏)环保理念和经济效益有关。
