These negative impacts include but are not limited to
– environmental pollution
– lack of safety measurements
– modern slavery
– child work

The key to increase the recycability is to design products in a way that they can be recycled at the end of life and to track sustainability information of raw materials and products

Creation of the blockchain-based Troventum platform will allow to propel waste recycling to an entirely new level – by organizing a cyclical management system based on the digital transformation of the economy. It is a global solution for the problems of the currently stagnant recycling industry.

The project provides the installation of collection platforms in various cities, inside of which anyone will be able to deposit his plastic waste to be recycled in return for a charitable donation.
The retribution will be in form of cryptocurrency, depending on how much plastic the participant deposits. The cryptocurrency will be provided by the platforms through a digital screen in different ways, based on the user experience (novice or expert), namely:

– a ticket to be utilized as a gift voucher
– a paper wallet
– the sum gets credited directly to the user’s wallet address
– by QR codes scanning through own smartphone or other hardware or even on a bracelet with an embedded chip

This project will allow the creation of purchasing power generated by the recycled plastic, taking advantage of a system that involves both cryptocurrencies and a classic POS circuit. The plastic will be recycled through the creation of 3 different categories of products:
– Objects for the revaluation of public spaces in urban areas (benches, tables, recycle bins…) through a 3D printing system
– artistic creations
– objects for design and modern furniture in addition to daily consumer goods like ropes, fabrics (Dacron, BoPET) or sails.

EME is a digital, secured marketplace where companies can exchange excess materials and products. We actively facilitate frictionless transactions enabling highest value reuse opportunities for materials. This creates a transparent and reliable source of secondary- or excess materials, ranging from steel plates to textile fibers. We are one of the few marketplaces that facilitate transactions across sectors and industries. This is where the innovative power of the circular economy is maximized. We facilitate the exchange of these materials with technologies, knowledge and services. This means matching materials with the help of AI, safely exchanging sensitive data via blockchain and spurring innovation around material reuse with our knowledge partners like AMS. We are tapped into a global knowledge network of circular economy experts. This enables companies to become more resource resilient, decrease their environmental footprint and improve their bottom line by turning their trash into cash.
