Research Paper on the Circular Economy_2

INTRODUCTION
One of the challenges to the ancient model of disposal is the implementation of the
circular economy. This particular model relies on large quantities of energy as well as resources.
Although it is a common knowledge that the displacement economy is the economic growth
regarded to be long term in the economic replacement of the old concept with the new concepts,
the concept generally advocates for the development of sustainable growth. This particular
technique employs a system of revolutionary in providing economic solutions[12]. This is
achieved through the elimination of toxic wastes, use of renewable energy and finally waste
recycling on the motorcycle spare parts. The ideas of the concept are voluntarily achieved by a
motivational mechanism which is actually designed to maintain a comparative edge.
Obtaining a resource-efficient, the resilient circular economy needs investment and
innovation in creating better market conditions and resource efficient technologies for
sustainable services and products. The idea aims to improve the creative and innovative potential
of most countries in the UK by putting in place the multidisciplinary field for the small and
medium motorcycle industry. The circular economy is a more important upcoming field as

shown by signs of depletion in the world’s resources. Circular economy policy framework
comprises of divided enterprises through development and research of varied solution
Large enterprises most probably have initiatives to put in place circular economic concepts
like the chemical industry or the automotive industry. Few research works have been made
regarding the attempt to divide SMEs into the economy of circular[1]. The research, therefore,
aims at narrowing the gap by promoting ideas for United Kingdom SMEs to apply. The past
research based on circular economy checking deeply into small and medium enterprises is
discussed by literature review. The role of innovation in enterprise management is discussed in
one section followed by those on sustainability and resource efficiency in that order. Electric
Motorcycle industry faces some challenges and at the same time has opportunities in the state of
the UK and is represented by numerous examples. The last section will finally summarize the
research findings.
Structural Components
The structural components of the electric motorcycle are made up of the following parts:
Seat assembly, wheels, suspension and finally chassis. Specific industry applications are also
present in the literature. Usage of the circular economy is mostly highlighted in the analysis of
waste input and output. A serious implementation on circular economy disciples in locating an
enterprise can be used to achieve sustainable development as disclosed by a specific researcher.
This was thought to eliminate or at least reduce to some level the waste that comes as a result of
production. A researcher came up with a theoretical model based on polluting and recycling
output. This model tried to explain that the quality of the surrounding could improve with an
increase in recycling ratio. A relation by a researcher in a circular economy in the waste
biorefinery system is supported closely by another researcher suggesting that waste can be

transformed into a renewable material that recovers bio-based energy by means of sustainable
mechanisms[7]. Some researchers stated that biorefineries were wastes used to generate
chemicals, fuels, and energy which are closely related mechanisms supporting the adaptation of
circular economy.
Studies carried out by many researchers tried to show how energy and material efficiency
could be achieved in some industries like paper milk industry in the UK. This could as well help
in the motorcycle industry in the UK. Some of the familiar circular economies include the
recycling of minerals such as silver, gold, and even platinum. The process, however, does not
exist independently but requires other materials like cobalt, nickel, zinc, tin, and many others to
be recycled from them.

Several articles explain the theoretical, political and economic framework of the circular
economy as a researcher argued that circular economy finds its theoretical framework within the
theory of classical political economy. Some authors clearly give out distinctions between circular
economy and economic circulation as they state that recirculating resources to make various
products are probably not the circular economy[2]. Instead, a manufacturer is required to recycle
their own products and use it as an input in the production system. Some researchers saw the
circular economy as both socio-economic and an environmental issue that is why in their work,
they came up with a framework that displays both socio-cultural specifications and the social and
physical proximity between the involved stakeholders. They agreed that the procurement process
between producers and suppliers could be improved using common ground to obtain sustainable
resource efficiency.
Rims also form the most crucial components of the electric motorcycle structural parts.
Proper painting can be done to the metallic rims which have been repaired so that they are not
disposed of. In the recycling process, circular economy has also not been left out, it operates on
the rule that the products that shall not be recycled are recycled There is a delicate balance
between resource efficiency and cleaner production as disclosed by an explorer. The recycling
ratio is in higher demand by society but they have to pay much attention not to include toxic
wastes recycled from obsolete materials[14].
Therefore, toxic wastes should not be involved within the recycling process and a
proper disposal mechanism should be put in place. Even though recycling is seen to have nothing
pertaining post-capitalist consumption-based economic models, an explorer still argues that the
drastic change brought by some business leaders may not solve the sustainable and social
