What is in our waste paper? Take a close look on paber bales with our PaperBaleSensor

With the PaperBaleSensor (PBS), PTS has developed an innovative solution to determine the moisture, plastic, fibre and ash content of waste paper bales simultaneously and with high accuracy within a few minutes.
And now we are presenting the PBS live! Using a 100 kg bale of waste paper, we will show you the quality of the waste paper and explain what the sensor is used for in the paper industry.
Start 17:00 o'clock
End 23:59 o'clock

Description

We at PTS – Institute for Fibers and Paper gGmbH are excited to meet many science enthusiasts from Dresden.

Get hands-on experience and see up close how our PBS sensor analyzes recycled paper bales. Together, we’ll discover what materials are hidden inside – and how near-infrared spectroscopy helps make paper recycling even better.

If you’re curious, we warmly invite you to visit our booth from 5 PM onwards on the first floor of the Lecture Hall Center.

We look forward to seeing you!
