The flow chart illustrates three main stages that are involved in recycling the glass bottles starting with collecting of waste glass bottles, recycling them and ending with producing new products that are available for sale.
Overall, these three stages are further divided into 10 steps that complete the whole complex process of renewing the waste glass bottles.
The first step of stage 1 is gathering the waste glass bottles followed by assembling them at a particular collection point. Then, the collected bulk of the scrap is transported to a recycling unit. Now, these bottles are cleaned under high pressure water and then are separated based on their colour.
The bottles are classified into three different colours that are brown, green and clear respectively.
Furthermore, these are sent to glass factories where they are made into pieces. These glass pieces are burned in a furnace with a temperature range between 600 degrees to 800 degrees celsius. Further divided into recycled and new liquid glass and are shaped in glass mould. The newly made bottles are again transported to supermarkets and are up for sale.
