Sensor-based Sorting Technology, Enable Circular Economy of Plastic (Mandarin)
At the Low-carbon Commitment: Plastics Recycling, Mono-material and Circular Economy eForum held on 9 June, Kelly Xie, Head of TOMRA Sorting Recycling China of TOMRA, presented the company’s sensor-based sorting solutions including whole bottle sorting and bottle flake sorting.
The solutions, employing technologies of GAIN, SHARP EYE, DEEP LAISER and FLYING BEAM, perform whole bottle pre-sorting, she mentioned. After being crushed, cleaned and dried, the bottle flakes are sorted and purified by FLYING BEAM technology and double-sided full-color cameras.
In her opinion, making use of smart technologies and working closely with the packaign industry allow turning waste into valuable materials.
The eForum was jointly hosted by CHINAPLAS and Adsale Plastics Network as one of the Hot Tech Webinars at CHINAPLAS 2022 Virtual Show. Big players in related industries shared the latest trends in design, technology and application of sustainable plastic packaging.
