circular economy

ZED&L (Zero Emissions Distribution & Logistics) proposes an innovative city logistic model for the shipment of products in urban areas. The project is aimed at the reduction of emissions, the noise, and the costs of the phyisical distribution. CNR-IASI is partner of the Zero Emission Distribution and Logistics project who recently won the prize Logistico dell’anno CNR-IASI will validate and analyse the performance of the distribution model. It will study also the differences, constraints, and opportunities offered by the distribution model under different configurations and against traditional models.

The project REMIND - REverse Manufacturing INnovation Decision system has been granted by Regione Lazio! This 18 months project will address the optimization of reverse logistics and production planning for a manufacturing plants which produce plastic pellets from returned plastic goods. The project will digitalize the flow of material, helping to improve the monitoring and the control of the reverse logistics, and improve the quality of the production. CNR-IASI will develop innovative reverse distribution and production planning methods and algorithms.
