As a result, more of the 2 billion tonnes of waste produced globally on average per year will be recovered and reused.\n\n## The Problem\n\n### Currently, only 8.6% of the world’s economy is circular.\n\nA complete circular economy could generate a net economic gain of $4.5 trillion by 2030. This poses a huge opportunity for businesses in the sustainability and waste management sectors in particular. The challenge, however, is in how this can be most efficiently achieved.\n\n## The Solution\n\n### Recycle2Trade uses a mix of open and proprietary real-time data.\n\nThe platform integrates business financial data and analytics, waste compliance data, transport rates and delivery time calculations, and indicative material prices.\n\n![](https://cms.vuesensing.com/wp-content/uploads/R2T-MQ.png)\n\n### Material Quality Check\n\nThe platform’s material quality assessment solution will connect buyers and providers. The assessment will deliver standardised information on the quality and specification of the materials.\n\n![](https://cms.vuesensing.com/wp-content/uploads/R2T-CC.png)\n\n### Compliance Check\n\nA compliance-assured trading system to confirm the credentials of trading parties. Please see the ‘Open Waste Compliance’ Project page for more information.\n\n![](https://cms.vuesensing.com/wp-content/uploads/R2T-TC.png)\n\n### Transport Cost\n\nTransportation can account for a significant amount of costs in the waste management industry. Live information on the geographical position of the mobile device can enable local access to material, optimising transport costs.\n\n![](https://cms.vuesensing.com/wp-content/uploads/R2T-MBM.png)\n\n### Material Map Browser\n\nThis feature allows for a simple, clean, fast and reliable user-experience for clients.\n\n### Do you want to know more about this project?\n\n[Go to website](https://recycle2trade.com)\n"}
