Hey friends,

Plooto!

Product Passport Through Twinning of Circular Value Chains

What we do

The constantly increasing demand for scarce resources and critical raw materials (CRMs) requires efficient usage of resources – reuse and recycling of materials- and responsible waste management and prevention. Plooto aims to deliver a Circular and Resilient Information System (CRIS) to support manufacturers in their green, digital and circular transition. CRIS enables waste reduction and end-to-end traceability of Secondary Raw Materials (SRM) through interconnected digital services for real-time decision-making, monitoring and certification of materials and products. The solution will be piloted in three different circular supply chains demonstrating waste reduction, reusability of scrap and production by-products, and operational improvement.

The Plooto Pilots

Cirtus Waste Processing

The Citrus processing waste for juice by-products pilot uses the waste from the production of orange juice to recover EO and then produce by-products such as animal feed, high quality molasses for food industry, and d-Limonene for cosmetic industry.

CFRP Waste for Drones

The CFRP waste for Drones pilot aims to use CFRP waste from the production of new composite materials to be re-used in the production of drones in the value chain




WEEE for Magnets

The WEEE for Magnets pilot uses WEEE to extract PMs (bonded NdFeb and Sr-ferrite, and sintered Sr-ferrite) which are used (as SRMs) in the production of new magnets, aiming to increase their usage
