Glass May Be Recycled Quite Easily Dear Editor: One of the easiest materials materials to recycle is glass. It makes up about 8% of the waste stream and therefore amounts to about 790 tons per day. The glass you recycle is crushed and becomes known as cullet. The cull et is mixed with sand, limestone and soda ash and heated to about 2800 degrees F. It is then molded into new containers. containers. Currently 20-30% of all clear bottles are made from recycled glass while about 70% of green bottles are recycled recycled glass. Glass can also be manufactured into fibre glass or glass beads for reflective reflective paint. Even road beds can be made out of glasphalt (asphalt which includes includes glass as part of the aggregate). Sewer pipes can be made from 87% waste or recycled glass. You can help keep the glass industry going while helping the environment. Rinse out your glass bottles and jars, remove the lids and do not include glass dishes, light bulbs or pyrex glass. They contaminate the recyclable glass. You can also help by buying buying your favourite product in a glass jar and refuse to buy it in plastic. This can be your silent protest against the plastic industry which has been dragging its heels in recycling its products. It can be done but it is not living living up to its corporate responsibility responsibility so boycott all plastic products until the plastic industry gets the message. you help, by saving energy. energy. It takes far less energy to manufacture glass from recycled glass. Every ton of cullet saves 30% of the energy energy required to produce an equivalent amount of virgin glass. The use of recycled glass also " saves the company money since they can produce produce glass at lower temperatures temperatures thereby extending the life of the furnace. Recycled glass also means reduced stack emission emission which means less' air pollution and cleaner air for all of us. Every ton of glass recycled recycled means a ton less for the garbage dump. We all know what benefit that has since we are in a crisis situation in this area. While cleaning up the Wilmot Creek last Sunday I was struck by the fact that many of the bottles left on the banks of the Wilmot had been smashed. It is much easier to recycle an unbroken unbroken bottle than a broken one. Take the extra step and refuse plastics when glass is available. We can make a difference! difference!
