KIRAMET: Digital Product Passports for Optimized Metal Recycling
Madhu Dasika, Felix Strohmeier, Roman Rainer (2025): KIRAMET: Digital Product Passports for Optimized Metal Recycling In: Second International Conference of the Hellenic Society for Circular Economy (HSCE).
The Digital Product Passport (DPP) is a cornerstone of the European Union (EU) Commission’s Green Deal and will become an essential requirement in the Ecodesign for Sustainable Product Regulation (ESPR). The aim is to track a product’s entire lifecycle for improved sustainability. It standardizes product lifecycle data – including materials, components, and recyclability – to improve traceability and sustainability. Moreover, it provides real-time access to critical information through a distributed secure ecosystem for stakeholders to foster waste reduction and secondary material use across supply chains.
