RE: Plastic disposable masks as an additional source for PHE?2 Feb 2022 14:29
Honestly, working in the sector, if they could make use out of the sheer volume of plastic waste used on ambulances it would be fantastic. The amount of plastic airways, aprons, Suction kits, etc disposed of due to expired stock is insane! A way to send it off to be converted into fuel for the vehicles would save the industry a large amount of money. Granted I doubt the contaminated used bits of kit could be sent off but just the expired stock alone would be greatly benefitial.
Hell even the packaging that nearly everything is sealed in is plastic! A seperate bin for packaging to go into to then send off to companies using DMG tech would be great.
