Voluntary Return System (VRS)
Voluntary Return System (VRS) machines, particularly referring to Reverse Vending Machines (RVMs) used in recycling programs, offer several advantages that contribute to sustainable waste management practices and environmental conservation.
Key advantages for Companies:
Promotion of Recycling, Resource Conservation, Calculating Carbon Footprint
Deposit Return Schemes (DRS)
Reverse vending machines (RVMs) play a crucial role in Deposit Return Schemes (DRS).
These machines automate the process of collecting used beverage containers from consumers in exchange for a deposit refund. When a consumer returns a container to the RVM, it typically scans, sorts, and compacts the container, ensuring efficient recycling.
