Cal-Waste added five optical sorters in its 2020 MRF upgrade: three optical sorters on its fiber line and two on its container line. For material recovery facility (MRF) operators, fiber tends to make ...

While optical sorters commonly are used to sort paper in material recovery facilities (MRFs) that handle single-stream commercial material, their use on residential fiber sort lines is increasing for ...

In microfluidics, flow is predominantly laminar, creating challenges in the design of actuators such as mixers and sorters. The extremely low Reynolds numbers associated with microfluidic flows (for ...

The technique may have the ability to sort matter from the scale of macromolecules all the way up to large cells. In addition to the technical advantages of optical sorting and fractionation, the ...
