France
Supporting a city to upgrade purity of its waste streams with AI

French municipalities have to comply with norms regarding the purity of waste streams, otherwise they incur penalties on the non recoverable part of waste. The characterization of waste is a time consuming, manual process that can only be done by sampling. This process is a huge risk management challenge for operations, since the complexity of waste mix is increasing and the safety of operators has to be ensured.
This solution combines AI recognition of waste flows with an end to end quality control. With characterization reaching 90% on some flows, this innovation is helping the operators to cut down the risks and improving the recoverable part of waste.
