Near infra-red/[[NIR Optical Sorting]] systems use advanced infra-red sensors to effectively identify materials/[[Feedstock|feedstock]] of different wavelengths. The targeted materials are then ejected through the high-pressure valve to achieve the purpose of sorting<ref>[https://www.hbsorter.com/solution/Nir-Optical-Sorter.html NIR Optical Sorter]</ref>. The first NIR sorting systems were used to process [[Recyclables|recyclable]] materials at the beginning of the 1990s and the technology has developed significantly in the past five years. These systems are frequently used in [[MRF]]s to streamline the sorting process, reduce labour costs, and increase the throughput to make [[Recycling|recycling]] operations more efficient<ref name="ref1">[https://crigler.com/how-optical-sorting-systems-work-for-recycling/  How Optical Sorting Systems Work for Recycling]</ref>. [[NIR Sorting Systems]] are capable of processing [[Packaging Waste|packaging]], [[Paper|papers], [[Waste|waste]] electrical equipment, [[Residual Waste|residual waste]] ([[RDF]]), [[Plastic|plastics]] and vehicle [[Recycling|recycling]]<ref>[http://www.wasteminz.org.nz/wp-content/uploads/Ernie-Beker.pdf Automatic Sorting of Recyclable Materials With NIR Technology]</ref>.
