The diagram below shows the process of recycling glass bottles.
The picture illustrates how glass bottles are recycled.
Overall, there are three main stages involved in the recycling process, beginning with the collection of wasted bottles and ending with new products entering the market to be purchased.
In the first step of the process, all glass bottles are stored at the collection point where they are picked up and delivered by trucks to a cleaning plant. Here, the bottles are washed by high-pressure water, and then they are sorted according to colour (clear, green or brown) before preparing to the following stage.
In the third stage of the method, the clean and sorted bottles are then transported to a recycling plant, where they are melted in a special glass furnace to turn them into liquid form. After that, the recycled liquid glass, along with new liquid glass, will be moulded to form new glass bottles. Finally, the new bottles are ready to be used and sent to supermarkets where they will be bought and used by customers.
