Reverse Vending Machines (RVMs) are automated machines used to collect, sort, and process used beverage containers for recycling. They are typically found in public places such as supermarkets, shopping malls, and transportation hubs. RVMs are part of the larger manufacturing and industry sector, which includes the production of goods and services. RVMs are designed to reduce the amount of waste generated by consumers and to encourage recycling. They are equipped with sensors and scanners that can detect the type of container and its size, and then dispense a voucher or coupon in exchange for the container. The collected containers are then sorted and recycled. RVMs are becoming increasingly popular as a way to reduce waste and promote recycling. They are also being used to reduce the amount of plastic waste in the environment. Companies in the Reverse Vending Machine market include Tomra, Envipco, Recyclebank, and GreenOps.
