Decontamination of plastic and metal containers
Plastic bottles
Plastics pose a serious threat to the environment for two main reasons; its massive use in all kinds of products and its slow degradation. It is estimated that it takes about 180 years to decompose, although this period varies depending on the type of plastic.
Metal containers
These wastes have a great economic value, since their recovery saves large amounts of raw materials which, in this case, have a high price and are also difficult to extract.
