Today we are celebrating an important milestone for OSAI Green Tech SB, the inauguration, in the presence of the Minister of the Environment and Energy Security - Gilberto Pichetto Fratin - of our first Re4M – Recycling for Manufacturing plant built for the IREN Group and installed at Valdarno Ambiente in the municipality of Terranuova Bracciolini, in the province of Arezzo. Re4M is not only a project that looks to the future of recycling, but also a concrete [...]
We all have at least one electronic device abandoned in a drawer or in a box relegated to the attic, waiting to figure out how to dispose of it, without knowing that it is a useful resource. WEEE - Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment - contains several precious metals, such as gold, silver, copper and palladium, which, thanks to their recycling, can be reintroduced into the production cycle, contributing to the circular economy, avoiding new extractions and promoting [...]
The XXVII edition of Ecomondo, the reference trade fair for those involved in technological innovation applied to sustainability, held in Rimini from 5 to 8 November 2024, has come to an end. For years, the event is an important opportunity for OSAI GreenTech to highlight its innovative solutions and commitment to actively contribute to the transition towards a circular economy. Once again, this year, we promoted our cutting-edge technologies for the [...]
Every year millions of electrical and electronic devices are discarded as the products break or become obsolete and are thrown away. The generation of e-waste is rising by 2.6 million tonnes annually, meaning that it could reach 82 million tonnes by 2030. There is a growing need to develop strategies for a circular economy and events that bring together experts from across the globe to explore emerging technologies, best practices, and policy developments in the e-waste, battery, and [...]
In 2023, the transition from a linear to a circular economy must be considered the mandatory starting point for designing and manufacturing a green product. This requires a paradigm shift within every sector, including the field of industrial automation. The data confirms the need: more than 80% of a product's environmental impact is generated during the design phase. Approving a solution based on the efficient use of resources and materials contributes to reducing the effects of production and [...]
The curtain has come down on Ecomondo, which closed its 26th edition with record numbers. Staged in the Rimini Exhibition Centre, the largest trade fair in Europe and in the Mediterranean region for technologies, services and industrial solutions in the green & circular economy sectors recorded an increase in attendance compared to the previous edition of +15%, as well as more than 1,500 exhibitors (+10%) and 150 thousand square metres dedicated. For the second [...]
The Genoese start-up Hiro Robotics was founded in 2018 by four young engineers, Davide Labolani, Jacopo Lottero, Tomaso Manca and Michele Oliveri, with the aim of improving classic industrial automation processes with collaborative robots, maximising the amount of critical raw materials and valuable materials recovered from discarded electronic devices. In 2023, their proposal to integrate core competencies in AI, machine vision and robotics for sustainability meets with Osai GreenTech, set up to apply automation in the world of [...]
Ecomondo, the international benchmark event for technologies, services and industrial solutions in the green and circular economy sectors, is back.From the 7th to 10th November 2023, companies, stakeholders, policy makers and opinion leaders will meet in Rimini, and for the second year running Osai GreenTech SB S.r.l. will be one of the more than 1,500 exhibitors.You will find us in Hall B3 - Stand 315 and, aware of the importance of maximizing visitors' time in order to make the [...]
14th October is International E-Waste Day, an awareness day created to highlight the growing problem of e-waste and to promote responsible e-waste management. Now in its sixth year, the anniversary is promoted by the WEEE Forum, an association of collective WEEE management systems that brings together members from over 40 countries. According to the latest data, at least thirteen electronic products such as mobile phones, PCs, hairdryers are abandoned at home or thrown in landfills. This number drops [...]
The amount of Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment generated globally is increasing at a rate of almost 2 million tonnes per year. It is estimated that the almost 60 million tonnes recorded in 2022 will become 75 by 2030. Europe, while leading in WEEE collection, is the continent that generates the largest amount per capita. In the study "Opportunities for the WEEE sector within the Critical Raw Materials Act” conducted by the consultancy firm The European [...]
