Student Work

The amount of waste generated on campus at WPI has steadily increased over the past 10 years, but the recycling efficiency has lacked in response to this increase. With this project, we aimed to identify opportunities to implement improvements to the current recycling process at WPI through surveying, data analysis, and experimental testing. The goal of this project was to improve the recycling performance of the campus population to optimize recycling efficiency.
