Summary

India is among the leading countries in producing waste. This waste creates landfills upon dumping and is very hazardous to society. A Circular Economy (CE) is the best approach for dealing with this waste using the concept of the 3 R's principle of reducing, reusing, and recycling, which increases the overall usage life cycle of the material. Though having many advantages, CE is not yet in routine practice by the industries. The current research work aims to find the barriers that hinder the practices of CE using a critical literature review in context to the rubber industries situated in India. A relationship between these barriers has been put forward in this research to find the most critical barrier using fuzzy DEMATEL. This research provides a strategy for the industries situated in India to enhance effective methodologies to overcome the identified barriers, which are the peculiar findings of this research.
