New LP.PRO - Magazine Article: Plastic Recycling with the BlackIndustry SWIR 1.7 Pro Max
14.01.2025
With more than 400 million tons of plastic produced annually and only 9% recycled, plastic waste is a global challenge that threatens ecosystems, wildlife and human health. In the latest edition of the LP. PRO – Magazine, HAIP Solutions is featured in an article that explores innovative solutions for plastic recycling, including the role of advanced hyperspectral imaging technology.
A major challenge is identifying and removing PVC, a common contaminant in recycling streams. PVC releases harmful toxins when burned, posing risks to various industries.
Hyperspectral Imaging technology offers an innovative solution.
By analyzing the unique spectral signatures of materials, it identifies plastics with exceptional precision. For example, it ensures the high-purity recovery of PET bottles, one of the few plastics suitable for true closed-loop recycling.
The BlackIndustry SWIR 1.7 Pro Max is a groundbreaking hyperspectral camera tailored for industrial plastic recycling. Highlights include:
- Broad spectral range (900-1730 nm)
- The world’s highest spatial resolution of 2560 pixels for detailed analysis
- Real-time sorting at industrial speeds with up to 2230 Hz frame rate
This technology enables efficient sorting of mixed plastic flakes, paving the way for a circular economy where plastic waste is continuously reused.
