SALINAS OSUNA, Edna Yahile; ANACONA ORTIZ, Jhonier David; PATINO PERDOHO, Oscar Fabián  e  HILLAN ROJAS, Edwin Eduardo. Development of an Automatic Container and Sorter for Recyclable Material as a Circular Economy Strategy in the Educational Context. Ing. Desarro. [online]. 2021, vol.39, n.1, pp.156-174.  Epub 22-Out-2021. ISSN 0122-3461.  https://doi.org/10.14482/inde.39.1.006.38.

The objective of this research was to characterize the recyclable solid waste produced at the University of the Amazon, and to develop an automatic container and classifier for this type of waste, to contribute through ict to the process of environmental sustainability linked to the concept of circular economy in education. The defined methodology was divided into five phases that correspond to the knowledge of the solid waste management of the cafeteria users, characterization of solid waste, design and construction of the container, training of the artificial intelligence (ai) system, and internal beta-test. Test. Obtaining, as a result, a total generation of plastic waste per week of 66 Kg, which represents an approximate economic income of $ 138,000 cop. In addition, an automatic container and sorter, capable of recognizing and storing plastic bottles, was developed using an artificial neural network. In conclusion, the recycling of plastic waste within an educational institution contributes to environmental sustainability, in addition to the development of technologies such as the container and automatic sorter, they allow to optimize the selection and classification of recyclable elements, quickly and safely.
