Resumo(s)
In the context of current environmental, social and economic issues, it is imperative to perform more in-depth
studies on waste management and the life cycle of a product. Thus, the concept of circular economy, aimed at
transforming traditional patterns of production and economic growth, is extremely important. One way to
mitigate negative environmental impacts that is consistent with a circular economic system is to encourage
interdisciplinarity between sectors, that is, one production sector can provide a function for waste from another.
In this context, this article gathers scientific information on two sectors relevant to the global economy (textiles
and food), with the aim of reusing waste from the food industry to manufacture a new textile product with added
value. Specifically, the focus is on the use of bacterial cellulose from the probiotic drinks from kombucha, for the
manufacture of biotextiles for fashion industry. A discussion is also presented, relating the circular economy
concept to the UN Sustainable Development Goals, in order to understand which goals can be achieved with this
approach.
