According to the company, each machine can take and compress 450 bottles per hour and can compress roughly 70% of waste, making it easier to carry waste to recyclers and reducing costs associated with transportation and logistics, TOI reported.
The Mumbai airport said that it had started a plastic ban in all of its logistics and procedures in 2019, including retail, food and beverage, and partner airline activities. It added that after the initiative’s implementation, the airport was completely free of single-use plastic.
This programme attempts to increase public awareness of single-use plastic garbage recycling. The Mumbai airport’s effort to achieve “Net Zero” carbon emissions would include a reduction in indirect carbon emissions from the manufacturing of PET bottles as one of the additional benefits, said the airport authorities.
