Resumo: | With the current advancements in the field of the circular economy the distinct advantages that it brings for food and beverage companies are pretty clear. Nonetheless, despite the increasing amount of literature concerning the broad concept of the circular economy and their many potential advantages there has been limited investigation into the particular techniques and methods that food and beverage corporations have implemented to incorporate circular economy principles in their operations. This encompasses methods of minimizing waste and emissions, as well as maximizing the utilization of resources such as water, energy, and materials. For this research, a multiple qualitative case method was used to gather data. Interviews were made with different food & beverage companies to understand to what extent they are familiar with CE and if they integrate these measures in their operations, as well as how they are making efforts to reduce emissions and waste effectively. Additionally, possible reasons for implementation barriers are analyzed accordingly. |

No entanto, apesar da quantidade crescente de literatura relativa ao conceito alargado da economia circular e das suas muitas vantagens potenciais, tem havido uma investigação limitada sobre as técnicas e métodos particulares que as empresas de alimentos e bebidas implementaram para incorporar os princípios da economia circular nas suas operações. Isto engloba métodos de minimização de resíduos e emissões, bem como a maximização da utilização de recursos como a água, a energia e os materiais. Para esta investigação, foi utilizado um método de múltiplos casos qualitativos para a recolha de dados. Foram feitas entrevistas com diferentes empresas de alimentos e bebidas para compreender até que ponto estão familiarizadas com a CE e se integram estas medidas nas suas operações, bem como como como estão a fazer esforços para reduzir eficazmente as emissões e os resíduos. Além disso, as possíveis razões para as barreiras à implementação são analisadas em conformidade.Leglise, LaureVeritati - Repositório Institucional da Universidade Católica PortuguesaYürümez, Yunus Emre2023-10-05T00:30:56Z2023-07-042023-042023-07-04T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10400.14/41712TID:203329627enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-10-10T01:40:42Zoai:repositorio.ucp.pt:10400.14/41712Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T18:34:56.910867Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
