The advantages and disadvantages of introducing the «self-contained» models of production and consumption are allocated using the SWOT model, a PEST analysis of aspects of the external environment affecting the development of the circular economy in the Ukrainian market is carried out. Based on regional statistics for 2016–2018, the dynamics of the main indicators of waste management in the Lviv region’s enterprises are shown; the level of involvement of enterprises of Lviv region to the circular economy and features of the use of «circular» models are diagnosed; the main problems with the treatment of industrial waste in Lviv region are characterized; activities of selected enterprises involved in the circular economy, as well as enterprises that pollute the ecology of the region, are analyzed; structure of the formed waste is depicted by species.
