Harnessing local biomass resources in Qatar: a systematic review of building a scalable circular economy for arid and resource-scarce regions
Conventional resource production is constrained in resource-scarce regions such as Qatar, leading to a heavy reliance on imports. Harnessing local biomass within a circular bioeconomy offers pathways to strengthen sustainability, the Energy-Water-Food (EWF) nexus, and economic diversification. This…
