Abstract

The objective is to analyse bottled water consumption in Mexico in view of a circular economy. The paper evaluates the rates of bottled water consumption and the key causal factors. Furthermore, it compares the role played by the private and public sectors in exacerbating demand for bottled water. The paper implemented a systematic review that identified articles mainly from the Web of Science and Scopus databases from November 01 to December 31, 2022. There were utilised three strategies for the search process, including keying in free-text words, implementing Boolean operators, and citation searching. The systematic review was conducted in line with the PRISMA statement/methodology. Forty-eight articles were identified after the complete search. The summations direct that bottled water consumption is high in Mexico due to the below-par conventional drinking water supply. Most customers cited organoleptic and health reasons as key factors influencing their preference for bottled drinking water. Conversely, the demand for bottled water contributes to high Polyethylene Terephthalate bottles, which contribute to environmental degradation. The implementation of the circular economy can reduce the associated negative effects through decreasing and optimization strategies. There were conglomerates findings from various articles while defining the key gaps and areas for improvement. The paper is seminal in bridging the dearth of knowledge on the circular economy and its application in the water industry while providing recommendations for policymakers.
考虑到循环经济,墨西哥的瓶装水消费量
目的是从循环经济的角度分析墨西哥的瓶装水消费。本文评估了瓶装水的消费率和主要的原因。此外,它还比较了私营部门和公共部门在加剧瓶装水需求方面所发挥的作用。该论文对2022年11月1日至12月31日期间主要来自科学网和Scopus数据库的文章进行了系统综述。搜索过程使用了三种策略,包括键入自由文本单词、实现布尔运算符和引文搜索。系统审查是根据PRISMA声明/方法进行的。经过全面搜索,共发现四十八篇文章。总结表明,由于传统饮用水供应低于标准,墨西哥的瓶装水消费量很高。大多数顾客认为感官和健康原因是影响他们对瓶装饮用水偏好的关键因素。相反,对瓶装水的需求导致高聚对苯二甲酸乙二醇酯瓶子,从而导致环境退化。循环经济的实施可以通过减少和优化策略来减少相关的负面影响。在界定关键差距和需要改进的领域时,从各种文章中得出了综合性的结论。这篇论文在弥补循环经济及其在水务行业应用方面的知识匮乏方面具有开创性意义,同时为决策者提供了建议。

期刊介绍: Published by the Mexican Institute of Water Technology, Water Technology and Sciences (Tecnología y ciencias del agua) is a highly specialized journal which reflects two important characteristics: The interdisciplinary nature of its articles and notes. The international scope of its authors, editors, reviewers, and readers. It constitutes the continuity of the journal Irrigación en México (Irrigation in Mexico) (1930-1946); Ingeniería hidráulica en México (Hydraulic Engineering in Mexico) (1947-1971); Recursos hidráulicos (Hydraulic Resources) (1972-1978), and Ingeniería hidráulica en México, second period (1985-2009). The journal is aimed at researchers, academics, and professionals who are interested in finding solutions to problems related to the water. The journal’s contents are interdisciplinary and contain previously unpublished articles and notes that offer original scientific and technological contribution that are developed in the fields of knowledge related to the following disciplines: Water and energy. Water quality. Hydro-agricultural sciences. Political and social science. Water management. Hydrology. Hydraulics.
