What can Knowledge Graphs do for the Circular Economy?

The ICT sector is responsible for 3-6% of global CO2 emissions (comparable to the cement industry) with a predicted increase of up to 14% in 2040, without sustainable interventions. The main barriers include the limited availability, accessibility and interoperability of ICT, materials and circular economy data across organisations.

This session will present our F.A.I.R. solution(s) that can aid this digital transition. We will showcase the RePlanIT's ontology and knowledge graph for representing and storing dynamic digital product passports (DPPs) of ICT such as laptops in a graph format. Further, we will discuss how such DPPs can be potentially utilised to help predict the need and timing of ICT maintenance, determine the remaining technical lifetime of components in the case of refurbishment and support more sustainable human decision-making such as procurement.
