Glass sand made from waste glass bottles

A Canadian company called VEG has invented a glass crusher that can grind waste glass bottles, including caps, labels, etc. into fine powder to make glass sand.

This type of glass sand made from discarded glass bottles can be used as a water filter for blasting machines. It is superior to the long-term sand used in sandblasting machines and has a higher hardness. It mixes with concrete and pigments, the glass particles will flash and they can make bright roof tiles and water purification equipment liner. Better than sand or activated carbon.

Experts believe that the biggest significance of using a glass bottle to give up glass sand is environmental protection. It can turn a large amount of glass waste into useful.
