Efficient Solid Waste Baler & Conveyor System

This system at NAVSTA San Diego reduces solid waste, diverts materials from landfills, and supports recycling goals by compacting and baling recyclables such as paper, cardboard, and metals. The compacted bales are sold to local recyclers, cutting operational costs. With a return on investment of $126,000 over 10 years, it helps achieve sustainability.
