Automatic screening system for Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE)

The "seeker" is looking for an automatic screening system that allows the separation of electrical and electronic equipment waste (WEEE) by different categories.

Currently, this process is done manually, by employees, and for that reason, it is done in an incomplete way. Once consolidated, the material is shipped to different companies (the Recyclers*) that will ensure that the equipment is dismantled in a controlled manner and ensuring best practices and strict compliance with current legislation.

The solution found should revolutionize the entire screening process, starting with the removal of material from inside the container used to transport the waste from the eco centers and extending to the preparation stage of the different materials for shipping. Thus, it should have the flexibility to adapt to the heterogeneity of the equipment collected, the different forms of packaging, and the different shipping conditions
