We don't have a system for reusable bottles here unfortunately. The glass, despite being mixed, is recycled either into new bottles, or used as filler material in construction. Tomra also has processes that can separate the pieces by color and material.
@@stockholm2375 in Germany we have the same machine, but the glass bottles go to the end and are placed on a table. The plastic bottles are lead to the side and crushed.
The way this works is they dump the cullet (crushed glass) into an optical sorter. It uses lights and cameras to “sniff out” the different colors, then yeets them where they need to go with jets of air.
Awesome video
This is fun...
Nice Video!
Don’t they also have 2 T-9’s? Iirc you couldn’t order an R1 without also getting a T-9.
No T-9s here. I think both could be ordered separately.
This is so cool I go to Shoprite in 20 ave nyc 11356
wtf they are going to destroy the bottles? not even sorted by colors?

I thought that the tomra R1’s did not exist here.
Only a few places uses them, they're very hard to come by.
That only for $2.20
Every bit helps
