Trials underway for new Milton Keynes plastic sorting machine One of the fastest automatic plastic bottle sorting machines to be installed in the UK is undergoing final testing in Milton Keynes and ...

Canon attributes the machine's high-precision, high-speed sorting of plastic (including black pieces) to its combination of Raman spectroscopy with a tracking mechanism.

Supporters of single-use plastic bag bans implemented or being discussed across South Carolina believe limiting plastics would decrease litter and waste.

A machine learning (ML) program was then trained on this data, and subsequently employed to look at and sort individual pieces of plastic waste.

The four-year grant is from the National Science Foundation’s Emerging Frontiers in Research and Innovation program; researchers are now building a robotic system that will “learn” to sort ...

Converting plastic-heavy automotive shredder residue into marketable materials can be assisted with electrostatic methods, according to a European technology provider. Color sorting when removing ...
