Abstract: A computer-implemented method can be used for controlling sorting of plastic compounds. The method involves providing a computer-based database containing entries on a plurality of markers each identifying a specific plastic compound; receiving scan data from a sample of a plastic compound; identifying a marker in the sample of the plastic compound based on the received scan data and the plurality of markers of the database; and sorting of plastic compounds based on the identified marker of the sample of the plastic compound.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method can be used for determining a sustainability score. The method involves providing a computer-based database containing entries on a plurality of markers each identifying a specific plastic compound; receiving scan data from a sample of a plastic compound; identifying a marker in the sample of the plastic compound based on the received scan data and the plurality of markers of the database; and determining a sustainability score based on the identified marker of the sample of the plastic compound.

Abstract: A method for the production of paper or cardboard is provide comprising the following steps: (A) Adding a water soluble polymer P to a first aqueous pulp suspension, wherein polymer P is obtainable by Polymerizing to a polymer V of (i) 33 to 83 mol % of a monomer of formula I in which R1?H or C1-C6 alkyl, (ii) 6 to 56 mol % of diallyl dimethyl ammonium chloride, diallyl diethyl ammonium chloride or a salt form of a monoethylenically unsaturated monomer, (iii) 11 to 61 mol % of a monoethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid, sulfonic acid or phosphonic acid, or salt forms thereof, (iv) 0 to 50 mol % of one or more ethylenically unsaturated monomers, and hydrolyzing the N—C(?O)R1 groups to form primary amino or amidine groups, (B) dehydrating the second aqueous pulp suspension to a wet paper structure, (C) dehydrating the wet paper structure.
