More than half of plastic becomes waste less than a year after it was produced, and most is sent to landfills or incinerators, rather than recycled or reused.
This plastic, which either remains uncollected or ends up in illegal landfills and open dumps, is most likely to make its way into rivers, and eventually the sea.
Every day, on average 5 kilograms of marine plastic accumulates along each kilometre of coastline, and will keep growing as current plastic waste generation is expected to quadruple by 2050.
12 million tones of plastic waste are leaked every year in the marine waters, it costs €75 billion to collect, while failure to recycle costs the world ’s economy $2.5 trillion
In Europe, €630 million are spent every year to cleanup marine plastic waste, while the failure to recycle costs the European economy €105 billion.
Recycllux uses ground-breaking technologies to develop a recycling and material chain optimized for the end-of-life plastic products that end up into the seas and oceans.
It is making use of the satellite Earth Observation data and applies machine-learning algorithms to identify the marine plastic litter problem spots, where actions need to be taken.
Then, it uses blockchain to incentivize the collectors and encourage recycling.
Our solution is enabling end-to-end recycling interventions.
Interested in our process, want to learn more about how we use ground-breaking technologies, satellite Earth Observation data and machine learning to push forward the development of end-to-end recycling interventions?
