Description

Description

The Southeastern Public Service Authority of Virginia (SPSA) has signed a 20-year contract with Commonwealth Sortation LLC, an affiliate of AMP Robotics Corporation, to provide solid waste processing services for SPSA's eight member communities and their 1.2 million residents. The project builds on a pilot project in Portsmouth and will scale AMP's AI-based sorting technology region-wide, deploying additional municipal solid waste sortation lines and an organics management system capable of processing 540,000 tons annually to divert half of the waste SPSA brings to AMP facilities. The technology uses cameras, robotics, and pneumatic jets to detect and remove recyclables and organics from bagged trash, extending landfill life, reducing costs, and supporting organic waste management.
