More sustainable circular port environments Laia Pérez, head of communications at Blue Room Innovation, points out that the objective of Portwaste II is to generate more sustainable circular port environments with the reintroduction of maritime and port waste into the market.

The project is based on the creation of an algorithm that verifies the traceability of the waste route from its arrival at the port treatment plant and its subsequent treatment, so that the amount of waste subjected to a recovery process can be demonstrated. energy and that which is reintroduced back into the market through recycling. All of this allows the port sector to become Europe Mobile Number List a circular economy model. The blockchain platform The process is organized through a blockchain platform that offers absolute traceability from the port waste generator. The tool is aimed at improving document management through digitization, obtaining complete traceability of waste, promoting circularity through the monetization of waste so that it is perceived as an asset with value and developing a system with interoperable and integrable blockchains. in other management software. In this second phase of the project, the aim will be to investigate and develop a secondary market using the data obtained in the first phase and the features of Portwaste will be improved by adding a digital identity layer and another Business Intelligence layer that processes all the information stored in the blockchain to achieve key indicators and add value to the environment.
