The diagram shows the processes for the manufacturing of glass,and also the recycling process of glass.
Overall,the process of making the glass bottle is take the four steps(mixing, melting, shaping,and glass containers), while the recycling process of glass bottle is five steps process (collection of used glass bottles, sorting by colour, washing, crushing and melting, moulding into new products).
According to the production, initial step for the manufacturing is mix the raw materials.like to sand,soda ash, limestone and other required chemicals,the raw materials mix and collect into the container.secondly, mixture of raw materials heat up to approximately 1500° c, which melting the materials into the glass furnace.thirdly,melted glass go for the shaping,in shaping melted glass furnace concerts into the glass bottle by the blowing process.Lastly,the process terminate with the made of glass containers.
However, recycling process start up with collecting of used glass from all the sources.In the next step,collected glass is separate by the colour of bottle.In continues the process, glass bottle before going to the crushing and melting, glass is cleaned and wash for remov the impurities.Lastly,clean glass bottle not only crushing and melting at the seperate temperature,but also moulding into the new products of glass.
