The current research paper proposes a framework RE-GENO which supports the design of responsible circular economy practices and argues that this framework can act as a preliminary tool for improving and expanding the decision-making context for a more equitable transition through use of artificial intelligence. The research papers have discussed the idea of transitioning from linear economy that results in generation of large amount of waste to a circular economy which leads to sustainable form of consumption and have further highlighted the challenges followed by it and application of artificial intelligence in its transition. They have given different frameworks which could form base of transitioning into it but at the same time, there has not been enough insight on implementation of it in Indian based economy. This research paper brings up a modified version for a framework whose main aim is to provide a new base for moving to circular economy and focusing on strategies on its efficient implementation in developing nation like India. It is found that application of this framework in India requires multifaceted approach that integrates all aspects such as technology, education, government initiatives and monitoring through risk analysis to foster sustainable growth, production, and consumption. Hence, the paper suggests that successful implementation might open the way for more sustainable and efficient resource management strategies across a variety of businesses. 2025 The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.

By shifting from the traditional linear take-make-dispose model to a closed-loop system, the CE principles aim to enhance resource efficiency and sustainability. This paper proposes a Waste Reduction and Resource Optimization (WRRO)-oriented circular business model, offering a comprehensive theoretical framework to guide businesses in optimizing resource utilization and reducing waste. Through the exploration of academic literature and a practical case study, the paper illustrates how businesses can effectively transition to circular business models. It also addresses the challenges businesses face during implementation, providing actionable insights for both theory and practice. The papers key contribution lies in integrating circular economy principles with resource efficiency strategies, offering a novel approach that supports both environmental sustainability and economic performance. 2025 The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.

At a time when the whole world is warming up to the idea of cryptocurrencies, India has only recently come on the map after demonetization. This has left Indian cryptocurrency companies groping in the dark regarding truly understanding Indian consumers and their preference for cryptocurrencies. Thus, to achieve the purpose of this study, we administered an online survey and studied only those respondents who were Indian citizens and had ever bought or sold cryptocurrencies before. Then, we performed factor analysis by analyzing responses to the questions of our UTAUT model using SPSS and PLS Smart. The results showed that the best predictor of cryptocurrency was using the construct Access to Knowledge/News, implying that Indian consumers use of cryptocurrencies was directly proportional to the ease and availability of accurate information about cryptocurrencies. 2025 The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Singapore Pte.

A signifcant portion of this waste generated is plant waste, including both sugar-rich and starch-rich materials. These waste materials are often considered as non-product leftovers due to their perceived lack of economic value compared to the costs associated with their collection, storage, and recovery for reuse. However, by employing appropriate technological methods, such wastes can be utilized as feedstocks for the production of value-added products such as polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA). PHAs are biodegradable polymers with a wide range of applications, offering an environmentally friendly potential substitute to the conventional plastics. Recycling plant wastes holds immense potential for application across various industries, ultimately leading to a reduction in the adverse impacts caused by their accumulation in the environment. This chapter delves into the utilization of plant wastes (sugar-rich and starch-rich wastes including beet molasses, sugarcane molasses, corn steep liquor, and starchy wastewater) for the production of PHAs. It discusses PHA recovery methods and characterization techniques crucial for evaluating the properties of PHA, thereby laying the groundwork for understanding the material quality and suitability for various applications. Additionally, diverse applications of PHAs, ranging from packaging materials to biomedical devices, are explored by highlighting the potential of utilizing plant wastes to contribute to a circular economy.

Introduction of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) in water treatment systems enables widening of its application in denitrification processes. Emphasising the importance of denitrification in water treatment helps to prevent the surge of nitrate concentrations, thereby hindering eutrophication and maintaining the balance of aquatic ecosystems. Therefore, there is an increasing urgency for the development of sustainable and efficient denitrification techniques to address contemporary challenges in water quality management. PHAs are produced by a variety of microorganisms under limited nutritional conditions and present themselves as promising candidate for denitrification due to their favourable characteristics which include biocompatibility, biodegradability and ability to store carbon and energy. The current chapter delves with the mechanisms governing denitrification employing PHA along with the intricate biochemical pathways and metabolic processes involved. PHA serves a dual role as both a carbon source and an electron donor in denitrifying bacteria, aiding in the conversion of nitrate to nitrogen gas in anaerobic environments. The chapter furthermore addresses various factors such as substrate availability, microbial community composition, and environmental parameters which are affecting the efficiency of PHA-mediated denitrification. Despite the potential advantages, challenges impede the widespread adoption of PHA in denitrification processes. Technical constraints such as substrate availability, yield of PHA and reactor design, coupled with economic factors such as production costs, present significant barriers. Future research endeavours should prioritise optimising processes, surmounting technical and economic hurdles, and comprehending the ecological ramifications for water and wastewater treatment systems using PHA.

Thereafter, an unprecedent increase in global warming causing severer and harmful climate changes and environmental instabilities led to the establishment of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In 2015, the United Nations accepted them into its global agenda for eradicating poverty, protecting the environment, and promoting peace to all people by 2030. Unsustainable development leads to depletion of natural resources, which is not simply a moral or ecological issue but are pertaining to economics, development, human health, and justice. The interconnected 17 SDGs acknowledge that the decision made in one area will have its repercussions in other areas and insist to strike a balance between environmental, social, and economic dimensions of sustainability. The digital circular economy (DCE) has been well-known in recent years as a tool that answers some of the most urgent cross-cutting sustainable development challenges facing the globe. This model holds great promise for accelerating the 2030 Agendas implementation with the potential to achieve the various goals of sustainable development like SDGs 6 (energy), 8 (economic progress), 11 (sustainable cities), 12 (sustainable consumption and production), 13 (climate change), 14 (oceans), and 15 (life on land). This requires significant changes in the organization of societies and businesses to progress towards sustainable future. Limitations The study is limited to analyze the global SDGs and related policies that are helpful in catalyzing DCE. Findings This chapter analyzes the global strategic plans and policies aimed at enhancing SDGs affirming the significance of digital economy for synergizing with the SDGs.

The research aims to assess company policies on carbon emissionsCarbon emission and analyze their investment in research related to this issue. The present research adopted a descriptive research design using secondary data from cement manufacturing companies to analyze the relationship between R&D spending and its impact on carbon emissionsCarbon emission from 2017 to 2022. A convenient sampling method was used to select the sample, and statistical methods such as correlation and regression analysis were applied to assess the relationship between the variables. The study has identified a twofold relationshipqualitative and quantitative between companies R&D spending and carbon emissionsCarbon emission within the framework of Sustainable DevelopmentSustainable development Goal 9. Focusing on cement manufacturing companies from 2017 to 2022, the findings show that increased R&D spending significantly reduces emissions by improving manufacturing processes through advanced technologyTechnology and machinery. However, the study is limited by the lack of detailed data on specific carbon-related R&D investments, making it challenging to gauge the exact impact. The precise proportion of R&D funds dedicated to reducing carbon emissionsCarbon emission remains unclear. The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2025.

It has been the source of climate challenge and also a key to climate change solution. So far, energy production through fossil fuelscoal, oil and gashas been one of the major sources of greenhouse gas emission contributing to the global climate change. They account for over 75% of global greenhouse gas emissions and nearly 90% of all carbon dioxide emissions which have a catastrophic effect on the life on earth. Climate change has cross-border ramifications; it has a deep impact on life system across the globe. Developed and developing countries fight and indulge in politics as to the use of kind of energy, and access to resources. They blame each other as to the nature, cause and impact of climate change. Recognising the requirement of access to resources by all countries, especially developing countries, for the achievement of sustainable social and economic development, and to control greenhouse gas emission the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) 1992 came with the idea of common but differentiated responsibilities and called for all necessary action among the nations including technology transfer to countries dependent upon fossil fuels. But the desired energy transition has not happened so far putting the future of the planet to risk. Further, the process of globalisation and privatisation has added on to the problem by unregulated promotion of private corporations who flagrantly violate environmental norms with impunity across the globe. In the light of the above, this chapter aims at looking into a shift in the approach towards governance of global energy and orient it towards a common globalised perspective in contrast to the present nation-state perspective.

The paper examines the use of dependent independent variables in a multiple linear regression model, tests assumptions of linearity, and examines the significance of the overall model and the individual variables. There are 190 variables in the dataset being used. This paper presents the results of comparing the regression models obtained through basic, forward, and stepwise selection methods where the model obtained using the stepwise selection method, when all the linearity assumptions are satisfied, explains 86.51% of the variation in the dependent variable and the Adjusted R-squared of the model is 0.8374.
