Lesson Summary
On this episode, Francisco Siena Vieira, VTT‘s Research Scientist, will be sharing insights about sensor-based identification of plastics for recycling, including:
- Key topics covered include applications of brominated flame retardants, hyperspectral imaging analysis for solid dosage forms, and monitoring plastics with brominated flame retardants.
- Development of active hyperspectral sensors for mineralogy mapping and plastic waste sorting is discussed.
- Francisco Siena Vieira from VTT emphasizes sensor-based plastic identification for recycling, using innovative methods like spectroscopy for accurate plastic assessment.
The presentation highlights various techniques such as:
- Near-infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS)
- Near-infrared hyperspectral imaging (NIR-HSI)
- Raman spectroscopy
- Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS)
- X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (XRF)
