Glass can be melted again and again to create new products, making recycling highly beneficial. However, not all glass is the same. If the wrong type of glass ends up in the recycling furnace, it can lead to expensive repairs and downtime.
To be as efficient as possible, recyclers use X-ray fluorescence to screen for contaminants, including ceramic and high-temperature glass, lead, and bromine. Not only does XRF provide accurate information, but it provides results quickly, which is essential for keeping the recycling line moving.
