This page needs some gramatical fixes, and more content is needed as well

I've tweaked the wording regarding remelting Pyrex, I hope this is more satisfactory Hertzsprung 20:02, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

I have completed a restructuring and clean up exercise removing much irrelevant information and incorrect statements. I have also added references from the UK glass recycling industry --Alex 14:37, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Merge with Recycling

I disagree with the merger, reasons stated on Recycling page.--Anchoress 10:26, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

I also disagree with the merger although I think the article needs to be improved and Wikified bring it into line with the Waste management category (subcat Recycling). It also needs to incorporate a section on the production of aggregates from glass which may be a valid method of recycling lower grade glass waste streams. Reference to standards & specification for glass waste such as the BSI PAS 101 and 102 would add credibility.--Alex 11:15, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

I should also point out that reuse is definately not recycling. Please refer to the waste hierarchy!
