| Abstract | This project investigated arisings of waste CRT glass, explored collection and separation techniques, and found five applications with the potential to use significant quantities of glass. They were:• bricks and tiles (for panel glass, which is unleaded)• flux in brick and/or ceramic ware manufacture (for panel glass, which is unleaded)• foam glass for insulation (for panel glass, which is unleaded)• manufacture of new CRTs (for both funnel and panel glass, mixed and separated)• fluxing material in metal smelting (for mixed glass and/or leaded funnel glass). |
