Description

Transparent plastic bottle collection management platform system that can improve the participation in transparent plastic bottle collection}

The present invention relates to a transparent PET bottle collection management platform system that can improve participation in transparent PET bottle collection, and more specifically, a transparent PET bottle collection system that can improve individual participation in transparent PET bottle collection by providing incentives. It is about a management platform system.

Since the COVID-19 incident, the use of single-use plastics has been increasing rapidly. According to the Ministry of Environment, the amount of plastic waste generated in the first half of 2020 was an average of 848 tons per day, an increase of 15.6% compared to the same period last year. However, the effective recycling rate is falling, with high-quality recycled PET recycling accounting for only 11% of the total recycling volume (as of 2019). Accordingly, the Ministry of Environment implemented a transparent plastic bottle separation system, but the current collection supply chain is used as is, reducing its efficiency. Accordingly, the present invention proposes an efficient method of collecting transparent PET bottles by providing incentives.

In addition, the transparent PET bottle market continues to expand, and the number of companies such as ‘Superbin’ that wants to participate in the collection supply chain is also increasing. Accordingly, it is expected that the collection of transparent PET bottles will be activated by the application of this technology, and once an effective collection system is established, the market for recycling raw materials such as high-quality transparent flakes is also expected to grow.
