Extended producer

responsibility - a tool to

enable the circular

economy

EXPRA – who we are

Extended

Enhance producers’

responsibility beyond a legal

definition.

Producer

The legally identified

industry actor.

Responsibility

To successfully fulfill legal

requirements, which cannot be delegated

to a third party.

A co- innovation history. Common Visions

• Creation of a digital community on the cloud

• Fairness between small and big cities/territories, universal

access to best practices

• Efficient investment, by sharing resources

• Each city and territory specializes depending on its reality,

challenges and goals: creating high quality specialized

solutions

Sharing experiences, knowledge and resources between cities

and territories

Unleashing the pathtowards a circular and

collaborative future

Creating an Inclusive Ecosystem

• Creation of a digital community on the cloud

• Fairness between small and big cities,universal access to best practices

• Efficient investment, by sharing resources

• Each city deploys depending on its reality,challenges and goals and at its own pace

Sharing experiences, knowledge and resources between cities and territories


SmartWaste. Where are we?

Business and Operational KPIs Improvement: Quantity, Quality and Cost

• Provide end-to-end vision among all stakeholders:

• Single data. No disputes

• Data-driven service management

• Informed citizens

• Reduced cycle-time from months to minutes

Initial Goal

What have we done so far?

• Collective learning: cloning identified best practices

• Technology democratization: long-tail strategy

• Innovation ecosystems development:

• Open, local and articulated

• European technology in the spotlight for exportation

Impact based value model design

Operational chain digitalization development

Technology Implementation:IoT, Geonalytics

Communication:EventsPressPublications

Deployment: POC, Pilots (6)

Escalation to new geographies and channels:• Europe• Latam, MENA• Microsoft


Digital Industry, platform help SME and Start Ups to:• Scale functionally leveraging ecosystem• Replicate in other cities

Citizens habits improve by:• Information contextualization• Personalized communication

• Regulatory framework:• Local Administration. Use of

cloud vs on premise (is allowed by EU funded programmes).

• Unlocking of IP (Intellectual Property)

• Shift from project oriented investment to shared platformusage

Service providers also see benefits:• Bringing transparency into the system reduces risk and

costs for biding and operating the service

Circular Economy goals should be understood at territory scale, not city by city.

• Medium and big cities:• Implement data-driven

management:• Improve long term sustainability

(financial, HHRR)• Focus on keeping citizen engagement

• Small towns: • Lack of resources prevent even

considering being an smart city• Happy to embrace cloud platform

and collective learning

4.0 SORTING PLANT

WHAT IS OUR GOAL?

To define, design, test and recommend how the future in

waste selection industry should be

• Being a reference in waste sorting plants

innovation

• Recommend how sorting plants evolution and

design should be

• Testing new devices and equipment

• Incorporate new technologies from other industry

enviroments

• Being the testing grounds for new developments

associated with waste treatments

4.0 SORTING PLANT

Integration in SmartWaste:

The goal is to integrate all the relevant

information obtained from waste selection

plants in the SmartWaste platform

Development of a system through SmartWaste platform

able to select relevant information from waste sorting

plants such us:

• Waste processing capacity

• Working activity hours

• Efficiency

• Productivity

• Bales inventory

• Volume of waste waiting to be processed

• …

SmartWaste Pilot Projects

Proving value in pilot projects

SmartWaste Pilot Projects

Proving value in pilot projects

Optimization of containers based on proper re-designs maintaining or

improving the levels of contribution

Optimization of routes presenting the possibility of more efficient routes

maintaining the levels of citizen satisfaction

Optimization of plant flows thanks to management of routes and

zones based on the quality of the contribution

More granular zoning with respect to the current scenario, urban, semi-

urban and rural, refining, updating the associated coefficients

Seasonality Greater sensitivity in agreements to the changes of

population defiencing between seasons, when managing containerization,

collection and selection

Main Conclusions (so far)

• The digital transformation in local administration starts with the

commitment of all stakeholders involved

• The transition towards digitalization needs a deep cultural change

• SmartWaste is an ecosystem based on trust among all the

stakeholders

• Collecting, improving and deciding upon data has to become the

new organisational culture to achieve the EU recycling objectives

• Measuring citizen behavior is critical for improving the selective

collection of waste

• Efficiency in local administration processes is the new paradigm of

circular economy
