CARBON OFFSET INITIATIVE (COI) - Disruptive Environmental Solution to Track, Minimize and Offset Ships Fuel-Oil Consumption and Waste Using Blockchain Technology

PREAMBLE

A storm has hit the investment market which we are not going to recover from. Crypto investment is that storm. With strict capital controls in place by most countries to control the flow of money and charge high taxes, cryptocurrency gained usage in circumventing capital controls and taxes, leading to an increase in demand. Cryptocurrency has been able to present an easy to use digital alternative to fiat currencies. Offering frictionless transactions and inflation control, investors have been prudent enough to add these currencies in their diversified portfolios as an asset, as the size of the market does not represent a systemic risk. Cryptocurrency employs the use of cryptography that assures high-security processes and verifies transactions personal to each user. Hence, counterfeiting and anonymous transactions are impossible to achieve.

While this revolution is gaining wide acceptance, Carbon Offset Initiative(COI), a green solution for waste and data traceability in different industrial spheres, using innovative blockchain technology to enhance productivity in collecting, tracking and recycling waste from different sources has arrived.

"Blockchain and Cryptocurrencies have paved the way for this generation’s industrial revolution, and we must give it the best opportunity to survive if we’re to pass on the baton to the millennial generation for it to thrive.

We have but one planet to live on. And while we absolutely should thrive and innovate, we must also take care of the environment for ourselves and future generations. Cryptocurrency, backed by the blockchain, is one of the biggest innovations in our history, and it is just getting started. The growth of digital currency has blindsided the world, and the power used in the crypto mining ecosystem is currently produced by non-renewable sources that pollute our air and water. This is a problem that is only getting worse, and it is only one example of the increasing energy demands of our population.

Creating a self-sustaining project in the crypto and blockchain space is the first step to encouraging further innovation and disruption in the renewables sector. To take it one step further, what if those projects invested a portion of their profits to research and development of green energy and renewable initiatives such as higher efficiency green energy sources, new renewable technologies and new forms of recyclables?"

With that being said, Carbon Offset Initiative aspires not only to be an innovator and leader in this evolving new ecosystem, but also to provide practical and immediate risk management solutions.

• Now that I have your attention, let’s get right to it.

What exactly is Carbon Offset Initiative?

As depicted above and as indicated on the official website of Carbon Offset Initiative, Carbon Offset Initiative(COI) is a green solution for waste and data traceability in different industrial spheres, using innovative blockchain technology to enhance productivity in collecting, tracking and recycling waste from different sources.

The mission is to help organisations and enterprises save energy, reduce costs and build broader commercial value while addressing environmental and social issues.

COI intently reflects both the expectation just as the solid outcomes COI goes for: Carbon Offsetting by streamlining the ''shelter fuel-oil to slops to vitality'' cycle and the administration of waste and emanations. This improvement procedure renders the recuperated fuel-oil carbon negative, as opposed to unrefined petroleum, it doesn't need to be investigated, created, refined and moved, along these lines diminishing altogether the carbon impression.

The Features

The CO Initiative system is comprised of a hardware and software layer. The hardware layer is all about devices that will collect and transmit the data which has been collected. The ships will be equipped with devices that are automated to measure the quantities of bunker fuel and slops at each stage of the process, measure the cargo in the case of tankers.

The automated devices will also track the quality of the slop by measuring the density and composition of the oily water at various levels. Finally, these devices will also register various external parameters that affect consumption and emission and then transmit these measures to the control centers via GSM or satellite.

The software layer is comprised of various core modules that will ensure extensive data processing to ensure ship owners have reliable information on how their vessels are running as well as slop management and recycling.

About The Carbon Offset Initiative Solution

• With the broad involvement with waste reusing, COI have been profoundly engaged with the truth of the reusing procedures of sleek waters and slops. There are three key worries for transportation organizations and proprietors:
• Is the reusing employment done lawfully, opportune, and in a quality way for the given amount?
• Are the included gatherings paid by understandings and least installments in real money?
• Have Carbon Offset Initiative overpaid (shrouded robbery)?
• After we have recognized the control issue as the main driver for illicit spillage and fuel burglary, we have formulated a cost proficient, simple to execute and work answer for remote observing of shelter and waste preparing (figure 1 ) dependent on blockchain. The answer has two layers, the equipment comprising of estimation and media transmission gadgets, and the product.
• COI's foundation can be adjusted to send proprietors' needs (discharges, speed, situating, climate, and so on.)
• The framework is considered to be versatile and its design coordinating the customers' needs.
• For instance, the customer can pick a part or all the arrangements from the above plan, from overseeing and improving its utilization and outflows to the control of the full ''dugout fuel to slops''.
• The framework incorporates both equipment and a product layer:
• Equipment layer (in blue):
• The equipment part comprises of gadgets that gather and transmit the gathered information

Vessels would be furnished with computerized gadgets to:

• Measure the amounts of dugout fuel and slops in their particular tanks at each phase of the procedure, from shelter fuel stacking onto the vessel up to the slops transfer;
• Conceivably measure the load (tankers);
• Measure the sleek water thickness and synthesis at different levels in the tank, to follow the nature of the slop;
• Register some outside parameters conceivably affecting utilization and outflows;
• Transmit the measures by GSM or satellite to control focuses.
• Reusing plants would get comparative gadgets to quantify the amount and thickness of the gained slops to be handled. A media transmission gadget would likewise transmit these measures, and after preparing, the amounts of strong buildup, water and oil reused from the underlying slop.
• Upon demand, the port gatherers and transporters could likewise be furnished with gadgets to quantify the amount and thickness of the gathered and moved slops.

About The COI Tokens

COI are tokens based on Ethereum platform. COI tokens are offering carbon neutral traceability solutions and benefits to its users while achieving social, economic and environmental pillars of Sustainable Development Goal’s 2030 Agenda adopted by United Nations.

Ability of tracking waste management processes and inputting trustworthy data on public ledger is mitigating manipulation while improving transparency and increasing environmental economics.
