[Case of Plastic Material Identification Device] Proposals for recycling to the source of discharge, etc.
The introduction of "Plashiru" has made it possible to recycle raw materials that were previously disposed of, significantly reducing final disposal costs.
Plastic Material Identification Device Case Study 4 ■Industry: Waste Management ■Application: Material confirmation of raw materials, proposals for recycling to the source of discharge, etc. 【Customer's Challenges】 The company, which conducts intermediate processing of general and industrial waste in Niigata Prefecture, is working to recycle waste as efficiently as possible, minimizing incineration and landfilling. Therefore, for the collected plastics that do not have material labeling, they were identifying the material by the smell produced when the edge is heated. However, the method of "heating and checking the smell" resulted in significant differences in identification ability depending on the experience of each staff member, leading to the problem of increasing final disposal costs for unknown materials. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.*

basic information
[After Implementation] ■ Material recycling of raw materials that were previously disposed of has become possible, significantly reducing final disposal costs. ■ Employees have started to question, "What is the material of this plastic?" and their awareness of plastic recycling has changed. ■ Externally, by demonstrating "Plashiru" to government and sources of emissions, we have helped them understand that "proper resource recovery begins with identifying materials," leading to their cooperation in the disposal of pre-sorted raw materials. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

■Introduction Yamamoto Manufacturing Co., Ltd. is a machinery manufacturer founded in 1918 in Tendo City, Yamagata Prefecture. We have gained the top market share in Japan for agricultural machinery, particularly grain dryers and straw cutters. "Because we are a company that has walked alongside agriculture, we want to contribute to improving the global environment that supports food production." This desire, combined with our cultivated technology, led to the creation of the polystyrene reduction machine "High Melter." Through the provision of our products, we aim to create a bright future for the industry together with those who are challenging themselves in the recycling industry (*). That is our mission. ■Thoughts on Development The concept of a "circular economy," which views discarded items as resources and aims to circulate resources without generating waste, is gaining attention. However, the recycling industry (*), which plays a significant role in this, does not receive much public interest, and many companies are struggling with labor shortages. Through manufacturing, we want to shine a spotlight on this industry and bring about change. This is the sentiment embedded in all the environmental equipment produced by Yamamoto Manufacturing Co., Ltd. (*) In contrast to the "arterial industries" that produce goods, industries that collect, recycle, reuse, process, and dispose of waste are referred to as "venous industries," likening them to the circulation of blood in the human body.
