Popis: Recycling centers are one of the most important elements of the waste management system. The achievement of required levels of recovery for installations is largely dependent on the proper organization of processes, in particular processes of sorting of waste materials. In most recycling center the key role is played by the processes of manual sorting of waste. The main goal of this article is to analyze the impact of changes in the size of the waste stream on the value of indicators used to evaluate the process of manual sorting of waste. For the analysis the authors used a simulation model that describes the process of manual sorting of waste in the WPO ALBA S.A. recycling center. Sensitivity analysis of simulation model will allow to improve the process by adjusting the size of the stream to the line ability.
