Background
Sources of polyolefins Gray bags (incinerated) Separately collected (recycled)
Sorting methods for polyolefins NIR (Near Infrared)
Needs large pieces (e.g. bottles) 95-97% product quality Low recovery (60%)
Ordinary sink-float Density separation (flake) Expensive Complex process Limited separation flexibility
