OWEN

Project Abstract
The vision of iZdesign is to innovate for a zero waste world. Where people and companies recognise, all residue and waste & Industrial by-products are high value resource that can be as feedstock for other products, which recovers value and lowers the cost of production, reduces the consumption of natural raw materials and minimises waste streams to landfill.

The overall purpose of the project is to provide an 'Online Waste Exchange Network' (OWEN) for Industrial Symbiosis that has national and international scale; offering a streamline process and infrastructure for recovering materials and value from waste; supporting SMEs into the Industrial Symbiosis market, strengthening regional and national 'Smart City' priorities and the implementation of environmental policy and economical consequences.



The are that we would like to explore through the Innovation Lab opportunity is to develop a standard data scrap method/application for dynamically accessing commercial waste arising for the City of Birmingham
