ASSESSING A PLASTIC CONTAINER FOR REUSE OR RECYCLING

摘要

Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for assessing a plastic container for reuse or recycling. For example, certain embodiments may provide a system that is capable of scanning a tag associated with the plastic container and determining whether to assess the plastic container for suitability for reuse or for recycling based on information scanned from the tag. With respect to recycling specifically, certain embodiments may be capable of assessing the plastic container's suitability for use as an input material to an additive manufacturing process. After assessing the plastic container, the system may perform one or more actions to reuse or recycle the plastic container.
