Abstract The move to smart cities may provide a chance to introduce solutions that foster the circular economy and reduce system waste. This survey aims at examining the applicability of circular economy models in smart cities, the technologies, strategies, and issues related to it for attaining sustainable cities. Examples of the focus areas include smart waste management, renewable energy systems, sustainable water resource management, and circular urban mobility. The use of advanced technologies like IoTs, blockchain, artificial intelligence, and big data in the implementation of circular economy practices is discussed. Business uncertainties, regulatory concerns, and policy challenges including high initial investment, governance issues, and policy frames are discussed, and some recommendations to enhance circular economy in urban environments are provided. Finally, the chapter outlines the directions for further research, the key of which are the technologies, public-private partnerships, and smart governance to foster circular economy in smart cities. © 2025 by IGI Global Scientific Publishing.
