Identification of black plastics with terahertz time-domain spectroscopy and machine learning

Abstract Several optical spectroscopy and imaging techniques have already proven their ability to identify different plastic types found in household waste. However, most common optical techniques feasible for plastic sorting, struggle to measure black plastic objects due to the high absorption at v...
