In Delhi, for example, so-called \u2018trash mountains\u2019 \u2013 overflowing landfill sites thought to pile over 10,000 tonnes of unsegregated waste into tall piles over 200ft high \u2013 are described as \u2018super emitter\u2019 sites for methane emissions, polluting the air and contaminating water.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIndia produces around 62 million metric tonnes of waste a year,\u201d Chetan Baregar, associate director of marketing at Recykal, previously told Google. \u201cBut its waste management ecosystem is still in its nascent stages.\u201d After adopting CircularNet itself, Recykal claims to divert 50,000 metric tonnes of waste away from landfill every month by accurately detecting PETE, HDPE, and LDPE plastics, among other materials, at a rate of over 90%. Its measured production quality is also believed to have improved by 60%.<\/p>\n<p>Apparently, CircularNet is capable of achieving 85-90% accuracy when detecting recyclable materials. While this system reduces reliance on manual workers, it is still expected to create economic opportunities in India while reducing the likelihood of sorting errors. Saahas Zero Waste hopes that AI will help achieve a 10-12% improvement in revenue generation and benefit other Indian entrepreneurs in its sector.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/packagingeurope.com\/news\/googles-machine-learning-model-expects-to-boost-indian-recycling-rates\/12034.article\">Packaging Europe<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/4-613\/\">Google\u2019s machine learning model expects to boost Indian recycling rates<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[575,839,1111,764],"class_list":["post-134792","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-google","tag-india","tag-recycling"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/134792","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=134792"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/134792\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=134792"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=134792"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=134792"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
