In other facilities, all glass is lumped together and crushed into "mixed cullet." The cullet is used in different applications, like a replacement for sand in sports turf, landscaping, brick manufacturing, septic tank draining fields, and paved surfaces.
another cool aspect to these facilities is the way they ingeniously sort materials from each other. they use air gusts, lasers, mechanical means and even electron streams to separate stuff out. the electron streams for example are used to sort magnetic from non magnetic metal.
