recyclablescan
Recyclablescan is a term used to describe automated systems that identify and classify recyclable materials in waste streams. They are commonly deployed in material recovery facilities and in pre-sorted or mixed streams to improve the separation of plastics, metals, glass, and paper.
The core components of recyclablescan systems include sensing technologies such as near-infrared spectroscopy (NIR), mid-infrared spectroscopy,
In operation, recyclablescan systems are integrated with conveyor lines and automated sorting actuators, air jets, or
Benefits of recyclablescan include higher recovery rates, lower contamination, and reduced labor costs, as well as
Challenges involve high capital and operating costs, the need for calibration to varying input streams, and
