Advancements in technology have led to the increased production of waste from electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE). Plastic, which is becoming more and more relevant for recovery or material recycling systems, is one of the most common materials found in WEEE.
The use of expensive and complex equipment in the recycling sector is problematic due to technical, environmental, and financial factors. Efficient and cost-effective solutions for material characterization, quality control, and sorting applications are needed. The use of Hyperspectral Imaging (HSI)-based sensors working in the Short-Wave InfraRed (SWIR) spectral range represent a viable solution to this challenge. This study presents a methodological approach using SWIR-HSI techniques for sorting and quality control applications of various plastic streams from WEEE. View this paper

Digital finance (DF) has provided important financial support for the transformation and upgrading of China’s manufacturing industry. Innovation is the engine of industrial upgrading. To solve the dilemma of developing the manufacturing industr...
Utilizing Chinese provincial panel data from 2006–2019, this paper applies the super-efficient epsilon-based measure (EBM) model including non-desired output to measure carbon emission efficiency (CE) and analyze spatio-temporal characteristics...
An increasing trend of anthropogenic activities such as urbanization and industrialization has resulted in induction and accumulation of various kinds of heavy metals in the environment, which ultimately has disturbed the biogeochemical balance. Ther...
The present study focuses on finding potential sites for ecotourism development using GIS and remote-sensing-based weightage sum overlay techniques in Western Rajasthan, India. Ecotourism is one of the fastest growing and revenue-making sectors incor...
In Bangladesh’s hill regions, where there is less cultivable land, increasing crop output requires efficient land use. Thus, in this challenging farming setting, two crop-based patterns evolved into three or four crop-based patterns. To increas...
Local observations of climate change can be a critical resource for understanding the impacts of climate change, particularly in data-scarce areas. This study examines local observations of climate change in two montane areas of Kenya- Mt. Kenya and...
The pursuit of sustainability in the construction and demolition (C&D) sector calls for effective decision-making strategies, both in terms of technical and environmental sustainability, capable of mitigating its huge demand for resources and emi...
This research paper introduces a sensor that utilizes a machine-learning model to predict water salinity. The sensor’s concept and design are established through a simulation software which enables accurate modeling and analysis. Operating on t...
Taking all-day, all-weather airport security protection as the application demand, and aiming at the lack of complex meteorological conditions processing capability of current remote sensing image aircraft target detection algorithms, this paper take...
