Recycle Glass

open access: yesChallenging Glass Conference Proceedings
Increasing the circularity of flat glass does not only mean to collect glass cullet from internal and pre- consumer processes. It also means to use glass cullet from the post- consumer applications, such as residential or commercial buildings. The flat glass industry is currently in a transformation phase to reduce its CO2 emissions.

Recycling of Leaded Glass: Scrap Cathode Ray Glass and Fluorescent Lamp Glass

open access: yesProcedia Environmental Sciences, 2012
AbstractWith the introduction of LCD technologies, there is almost no demand for new CRTs worldwide. Other alternative recycling outlets are needed, but still waiting to be explored. The author suggests in China recycling of scrap cathode ray (CRT) glass to leaded fluorescent lamp glass is the best industrially available way, but ultimately all the ...
