RevaluRepair: The Repair Economy: Assessing the economic, environmental, and social impact of community repair of small electrical goods

revaluerepair：维修经济：评估小型电器产品社区维修的经济、环境和社会影响。Tech-Takeback （TTB）目前通过其“RevaluElectricals”服务，为布莱顿和霍夫的居民提供废旧小型电器的收集系统。自2020年11月推出以来，该团队已经从2200多个家庭收集了27000多个小电器，重达25吨，如果所有物品都被重复使用，可能会减少2000吨的碳排放。迄今为止，已有1.1吨印刷电路板被分类回收，超过5,463件已被修复并重新分配以供再利用。与重启项目（TRP）合作，由伦敦大学学院主办的环形金属跨学科中心（CCM）支持，我们将对“RevaluRepair”进行可行性研究。通过这个可行性项目，我们将：*评估开设高街商店转售维修产品对当地经济的价值（技能、就业、收入），*量化因减少消费排放而节省的二氧化碳排放量，以及*评估维修服务对社区的社会影响（技能、就业、社会联系、与学校的互动）。*确定提供3D打印部件维修的好处*创建一个新的多标准评估矩阵，以确定维修项目的可行性，已被丢弃作为废物或发送用于重复使用。为此，我们将聘请一名维修经理来管理从社区招募志愿者进行产品维修并向公众销售。维修经理将由TTB雇用，并将与CCM和TRP一起交付输出。

RevaluRepair: The Repair Economy: Assessing the economic, environmental, and social impact of community repair of small electrical goods.Tech-Takeback (TTB) currently offers residents of Brighton and Hove a collection system for end-of-life small electricals, via its service "RevaluElectricals". Since its launch in November 2020, the team have collected over 27,000 small electrical items from over 2,200 households, weighing 25 tonnes and saving a potential 2,000 tonnes of carbon if all items are reused. To date 1.1 tonnes of printed circuit boards have been separated for recycling and over 5,463 items have been repaired and redistributed for reuse. Working with The Restart Project (TRP) and supported by The Interdisciplinary Centre for Circular Metals (CCM), hosted by University College London we will undertake a feasibility study to "RevaluRepair".Through this feasibility project we will:* assess the value to the local economy (skills, jobs, revenue) of setting up a high street shop to resell the repaired products,* quantify the CO2 emissions saved due to reduced consumption emissions, and* Assess the social impact to the community of the repair service (skills, jobs, social contact, interaction with schools).* determine the benefits of offering 3D printed parts for repair* create a new multicriteria assessment matrix to determine the viability of repairing items that have been discarded as waste or sent for reuse.To do this we will to employ a repair manager to manage the recruitment of volunteers from the community to undertake the product repairs and sell them to the public. The repair manager will be employed by TTB and will work with the CCM and TRP to deliver the deliver the outputs.
