ReseptiRobotti

ReseptiRobotti in short

There is a clear lack of circular economy-based products on the market, to which companies processing side and waste streams could sell the materials they produce, and which public actors could tender and buy. The implementation of scientific research results and information contained in patents on a large scale for companies to utilize has been identified as a key factor for the large-scale emergence of new innovations and thus for the efficient implementation of circular economy business and the green transition.

The goal of the ReseptiRobotti project was to enhance the transition to a carbon-neutral circular economy by developing a nationally significant and easily scalable digital tool for increasing the circulation and reuse of materials and increasing the value of side streams. With the help of the tool, the fragmented and often difficult to interpret information in individual publications is made available in an understandable form, thus enabling SMEs to create and productize circular economy innovations.

Several digital data processing and modeling methods as well as practical material expertise and testing environments were utilized in the development of the tool. Low-carbon concrete and the utilization of textile waste were selected as case examples of the first phase, around which the development work carried out in this project was focused.

Horizontal principles, gender equality and equality were taken into account throughout the project. The project followed Xamk’s equality plan. The main theme of the project was sustainable development, all aspects of which were considered in the operations.
