How Sortera is Turning America’s Scrap Aluminum Problem into Cash
Sortera is turning America’s scrap aluminum problem into cash by using AI to solve one of recycling’s toughest challenges: sorting mixed aluminum scrap. Only a third of U.S. aluminum gets recycled because identifying alloys is slow and expensive. Sortera’s breakthrough system separates aluminum grades with over 95% accuracy, making recycling faster, cleaner, and far more profitable.

What Technology Powers Sortera’s Scrap Aluminum Solution?
Sortera uses a combination of lasers, X-ray fluorescence, and high-speed cameras to identify each aluminum chip in milliseconds. Once classified, tiny nozzles push the chips into the correct bins, ensuring precision sorting. This AI-powered system eliminates the need to melt unsorted scrap first, saving energy and maximizing material value for manufacturers.
Why Sortera Makes Scrap Aluminum More Profitable
Mismanaged aluminum loses value when alloys are mixed. Sortera’s technology guarantees purity, which boosts resale prices for recyclers and incentivizes collection. By turning previously low-value scrap into high-demand material, Sortera not only addresses environmental concerns but also transforms the economics of recycling in America.
