Automated processing: how technology increases recycling efficiency

Introduction to Automated Processing in Recycling

Technological advances have revolutionized industrial and environmental processes, with automation in the recycling system standing out. With the increase in solid waste generation, efficiency in processing has become essential to comply with current regulations, such as the National Solid Waste Policy (Law No. 12.305/2010) available at planalto.gov.br.

Official Regulations and Guidelines for Automated Recycling

The regulations established by the National Sanitation Secretariat (SNSA/MDR) and the National Solid Waste Management Information System (SINIR) guide good procedures for the proper handling and processing of waste. Details of SINIR can be found at sinir.gov.br.

Benefits of Automation in Waste Processing

The introduction of automated equipment, such as optical sensor sorting systems, magnetic separators and artificial intelligence, enhances the efficient segregation of materials, minimizing manual intervention and increasing operational capacity. ESG sectors find significant value in improving environmental performance and reducing operational risks.

Specific Applications in Electronic Waste

For the proper management of electronic waste, including components that require attention for safe deactivation, it is recommended to schedule e-waste collection through the e-waste collection portal. This procedure also complies with Article 33 of Law No. 12.305/2010, which provides for shared responsibilities in the life cycle of products.

Safe Disposal of Media and Storage Devices

Automated processing also incorporates protocols for the sanitization and safe disposal of digital media, such as hard drives. Compliance with the Brazilian Civil Rights Framework for the Internet and related legislation ensures data protection. It is recommended that you consult the portal for scheduling safe disposal at descarte seguro de HD.

Conclusion

The implementation of automated technology in recycling processing represents an essential evolution for efficient and sustainable waste management, complying with Brazilian legislation and promoting sustainability in sectors that require advanced technical solutions.
