Reverse vending machines for can & plastic bottles.
A reverse vending machine (RVM) is a machine that allows a person to insert a used or empty glass bottle, plastic bottle, or aluminium can in exchange for a reward. After inserting the recyclable item, it is then compacted, sorted, and analysed according to the number of ounces, materials, and brand using the universal product code on the bottle or can.[1] Once the item has been scanned and approved, it is then crushed and sorted into the proper storage space for the classified material.[2] Upon processing the item, the machine rewards people with incentives, such as cash or coupons.[
