9561683 Spencer This Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project will address mechanical liberation followed by optical sortation for automated, high-speed extraction of metals from the electronic fraction of post-consumer electronic products and durables. Disposal of consumer electronic goods is a growing environmental concern and is expected to add significantly to the cost of U.S. electronics production. Thus, the project is also part of NSF's 1995 initiative in Environmentally Conscious Manufacturing. Optical sortation is presently applied to separate plastic bottles and to high-speed removal of contaminants from a stream of plastics. This research will establish the feasibility of extending this technology to the separation of one metal from another and from other materials typically used in electronics and durable goods.

9561683 斯宾塞 这个小企业创新研究（SBIR）第一阶段项目将解决机械解放，然后进行光学分拣，以自动化，高速提取消费后电子产品和耐用品的电子部分中的金属。 消费电子产品的处理是一个日益增长的环境问题，预计将大大增加美国电子产品生产的成本。 因此，该项目也是NSF 1995年环境意识制造倡议的一部分。 光学分拣目前应用于分离塑料瓶和高速去除塑料流中的污染物。 这项研究将确定将这项技术扩展到将一种金属与另一种金属以及通常用于电子产品和耐用品的其他材料分离的可行性。
