Patent ID: 8171610

Claim:
A disassembling and classifying method, implemented on a recycling system that collects a subject of recycling, which contains plastics, from a market and reprocesses said plastics to thereby produce a recycled product, comprising: irradiating said plastics with ultraviolet rays or an electromagnetic wave, the plastics containing an embedded line spectrum radiation that radiates light when receiving ultraviolet rays or an electromagnetic wave; identifying recycle information particular to said subject of recycling in accordance with wavelengths of said light radiated from said line spectrum radiation; determining whether the subject of recycling is damaged; registering the subject of recycling as reusable or recyclable based upon the determination of whether the subject of recycling is damaged; estimating a recycling cost of the subject of recycling when the subject of recycling is determined to be damaged; displaying a disassembling and classifying sequence for said subject of recycling on a display; determining whether the subject of recycling is reusable based on the identified recycle information and the stored disassembling and classifying sequency for said subject of recycling; registering the subject of recycling as reusable or recyclable based further upon the determination of whether the subject of recycling is reusable; estimating the recycling cost of the subject of recycling when it is further determined that the subject of recycling is not reusable; and determining whether a recycling process step may be omitted when the subject of recycling is registered as recyclable, wherein the recycling cost of the subject of recycling is estimated on the basis of the determination of whether the recycling process step may be omitted, the recycling cost of the subject of recycling is estimated to be a first cost when it is determined that the recycling process step may be omitted and the recycling process step includes a substantial processing step and an intermediate processing step, the recycling cost of the subject of recycling is estimated to be a second cost higher than the first cost when it is determined that the recycling process step may be omitted and the recycling process step includes the substantial processing step, and the recycling cost of the subject of recycling is estimated to be a third cost higher than the second cost when it is determined that the recycling process step may not be omitted.
