How patents support the development of new technologies in waste management

Abstract

This article discusses the main trends in the dissemination of the results of intellectual activity on the impact on the environment of industrial and household waste. Particular emphasis is placed on the analysis of patent activity in the countries of the European Union, OECD and Russia. We consider the patent as a tool of new technologies in the struggle for environmental cleanliness during the transition to a circular economy. A circular economy is an economy with advanced technology, sustainable development, and a production culture that grows through inventive activity. The article presents the results of an analysis of the state of patent activity by country in dynamics from 1990 to 2018-2019. At the same time, we conducted a study of the factors influencing patent activity using regression analysis and identified the most significant factors affecting the resulting indicator.
