The project combines machine learning models from Google with material design knowledge from Dow and recycling technology from Circulus, a recycling company owned by Dow, to identify recyclable materials by their molecular composition.<\/p>\n<p>The presentation included a proof of concept capable of identifying flexible and multi-layer materials. Sortation is just one factor in the challenge that films and flexibles present for MRFs: The materials today are often a containment, especially in fiber bales, and also clog screens, causing maintenance slowdowns. Markets for film bales are also still developing.<\/p>\n<p>Since the presentation, Google X announced the sensors are being used in a pilot program at a plant in Oregon. According to a statement from Google X, that plant can identify materials in milliseconds and sort thousands of items per minute. The project is part of Moonshot for Circularity, an initiative by Google X\u2019s Moonshot Factory to meet the rise in plastic use with renewable solutions and to create a circular economy for plastics by developing new technology.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/resource-recycling.com\/plastics\/2025\/05\/14\/google-dow-partner-on-ai-to-identify-recyclables\/\">Resource Recycling<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/4-712\/\">Google, Dow partner on AI to identify recyclables<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>\n","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":[22,1],"tags":[3519,5670,575,839,655],"class_list":["post-140010","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","category-yleinen","tag-ai","tag-dow","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-google","tag-yleinen"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/140010","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=140010"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/140010\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=140010"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=140010"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=140010"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
