Abstract
The circular economy, which is considered an alternative to the linear economy, is one of the concepts explored within the scope of the sustainable development approach. With the worsening of resource usage and environmental challenges in recent years, research on the circular economy has grown dramatically. In its most basic form, the circular economy is based on the reduction of output and waste, as well as the recovery of waste.
