A*STAR (A*STAR Singapore Institute of Manufacturing Technology) SIMTech has developed a Smart Bin technology which attempts to address the waste sorting and contamination issues. By segregating waste automatically into recyclable and non-recyclable, or into specific material types and into specific bins, the process improves greatly the ability to flow down to subsequent process with minimal human intervention and reduced mixing of the waste types.
