The purpose of CircularPort is to significantly reduce bureaucracy in the processes of receiving and recycling port waste, with the goal of optimizing its management and recycling.
Based on the experiences gained from applying blockchain technology to the port supply chain, it has been shown that it can improve processes by up to 70%. This is achieved through the simplification of procedures, the elimination of waiting times, and the improvement of coordination, which results in operational and safety advantages at port facilities.
Additionally, the traceability offered by blockchain prevents fraud by shipowners when unloading waste at the port and deters illegal dumping at sea.
