English: Plastics, with their versatility and cost-effectiveness, have become indispensable materials across various industries. However, the improper disposal and mismanagement of plastic waste have led to significant environmental issues, including pollution, habitat destruction, and threats to wildlife. To address these challenges, numerous methods for plastic waste sorting and recycling have been developed. While conventional techniques like near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) have been effective to some extent, they face difficulties in accurately classifying chemically similar samples, such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and PET-glycol (PET-G), which have similar chemical compositions but distinct physical characteristics. This paper introduces an approach that adapts image sensors and deep learning object detection algorithms; specifically, the You Only Look Once (YOLO) model, to enhance plastic waste classification based on the shape of the waste. Unlike conventional methods that rely solely on spectral analysis, our methodology aims to significantly improve the accuracy and efficiency of classifying plastics, especially when dealing with materials having similar chemical compositions but differing physical attributes. The system developed using image sensors and the YOLO model proves to be not only effective but also scalable and adaptable for various industrial and environmental applications. In our experiments, the results are strikingly effective. We achieved a classification accuracy rate exceeding 91.7% mean Average Precision (mAP) in distinguishing between PET and PET-G, surpassing conventional techniques by a considerable margin. The implications of this research extend far and wide. By enhancing the accuracy of plastic waste sorting and reducing misclassification rates, we can significantly boost recycling efficiency. The proposed approach contributes to a more sustainable and efficient plastic waste management system, alleviating the strain on landfills and mitigating the environmental impact of plastic waste, contributing to a cleaner and more sustainable environment. |
