Although state-of-the-art computer vision-based methods can overcome manual inspections’ subjectivity, they are limited by different scales of defects and time-consuming segmentation annotation of small defects. This study addresses these challenges by proposing a Surface Condition Evaluation System (SCES). SCES refines manual grading guides for quantitative evaluation, enhances YOLOv8 with proposed Defect Channel and Spatial (DCS) attention modules and Slicing Aided Hyper Inference (SAHI) to improve defect detection, then cascades Segment Anything Model 2 (SAM2) with Zhang-Suen thinning algorithm to segment and measure small defects without segmentation annotations. SCES achieves the detection average precision (AP) of 98.9 %, 81.2 %, and 80.5 % for <em>missing_battery, missing_cover</em>, and <em>scratch</em> on the collected laptop surface defect dataset, respectively, which are higher than other state-of-the-art methods. Additionally, the measurement accuracy for scratches reaches over 85 %, verifying the reliability of the proposed method. The results indicate that SCES employs novel computer vision methods to realize the automated and quantified product surface condition grading. This research supports the transition from manual evaluation to an efficient and objective automated approach in the EEE reuse process, thereby contributing to resource conservation.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":21153,"journal":{"name":"Resources Conservation and Recycling","volume":"225 ","pages":"Article 108608"},"PeriodicalIF":10.9,"publicationDate":"2025-10-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145261955","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The rGO material demonstrated excellent sensitivity to ascorbic acid (AA) in a concentration range of 1 mM to 100 mM at pH 7.6, offering a cost-effective solution for AA detection. The recovered graphite (RG) from S-LIBs and commercial graphite (CG) was first converted into graphene oxide (R-GO, C-GO) and then reduced (R-rGO, C-rGO). This material underwent extensive structural characterization using techniques such as powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) analysis, field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM). Electrochemical performance was evaluated through cyclic voltammetry (CV), differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). This study underscores the \"waste-to-wealth\" concept and supports circular economy principles by transforming electronic waste into a valuable resource.

Key findings: (1) EVA pyrolyzes in two stages: dominant deacetylation (300–400 °C), then chain scission (400–500 °C); (2) PVDF decomposition (300–600 °C) releases most fluorine as gaseous pollutants (e.g., 1,2,4-trifluorobenzene, SiF₄), leaving fluoride-containing solid residues; (3) The major KPK weight loss peak (350–500 °C) stems primarily from PET. Exploiting these thermal properties, a novel two-stage, fluorine-controlled process is proposed: First, heat to 350 °C to trigger intense EVA deacetylation and adhesion loss before significant PVDF cracking, allowing non-polluting backsheet removal. Then, raise temperature to 500 °C to fully pyrolyze residual EVA.
