Abstract

The paper is focused on the anthropic and natural (mattergic and bioeconomic) recycling process of the pollutant products with the possibility to reintroduce in the technological flow a major quantity of the matter with a very low level of energy used with a top level of the informaction (actional information). Is introduced the contextual (2+2)Rs paradigm (reduce, recycle & reuse, recombine-recover) connected to the ENSEC, envinronmental-sociopolitic-economic paradigm of the knowledge based society/economy (KBS/E). The perspective of such a pattern is an optimistic one; so, preserving mattergic resources, even energetic, with a larger contribution of the smart components and technics of the recycling process, we could overcome the contextual thresholds of a future bioeconomy. This represents a new perspective of the recycling process and is considered an important oportunity for the global economy facing the current crisis. In order to have a comprehensive vision of the pollution and waste issue, we are puting together in this paper, in a synergistic-generative significant way (synergy 1+1>2, and significance 1-1≠0), three conceptual and analytical knowledge-spaces: transdisciplinarity as a methodology, globalization vs glocalization as a reality, and sustainable development as a necessity. The linear thermo economic recycling model is compared with the nonlinear, simply circular economic one, in the bio economic context, giving a comprehensive description of what does circular bio economic recycling pattern really means.
