VTT Active Hyperspectral Sensor explained

The degradation degree of the plastic - mainly caused by weathering and exposure to UV (solar) radiation - affects its properties, and may render the plastic unusable. In the PRIMUS project, we are utilizing the novel  VTT Active Hyperspectral Sensor (AHS) to sort the recyclable from non-recyclable plastic waste pieces according to their degradation degree.
