10 11 Waste from the production of glass and glass products
More about:
The production of glass and glass products is one of the oldest and most widespread industrial branches in the world. However, along with the expansion of this production, a significant problem arises — glass and glass products production waste. These wastes are generated at all stages of the production process, starting from the extraction of raw materials and ending with the processing of finished products. Despite the fact that glass can be easily recycled, much of its waste still ends up in landfills or pollutes the environment.
The problem of glass and glass products production waste is multifaceted. First, there are large volumes of waste generated as a result of production. Secondly, this is the chemical composition of waste, which can be dangerous for the environment and human health. Glass waste can contain various impurities, such as metal oxides, which are used to give the glass certain properties. Third is the difficulty of collecting and recycling waste, especially when it is mixed with other materials such as plastic or metal. Services for waste management, collection and processing: Waste from the production of glass and glass products. Code of NPV 10 11.
Waste of glass and glass products production. Code according to the National List of Waste 10 11. Operations according to Appendices 1, 2 to the Law of Ukraine "On Waste Management" D13, R7.
A pity for the environment and people
Waste from the production of glass and glass products is a serious threat to the environment. They can enter the soil, water and atmosphere, polluting natural resources and disrupting the ecological balance. One of the main environmental risks is the possibility of long-term decomposition of glass in natural conditions. Glass is known to be non-biodegradable, so it can remain in the environment for centuries, posing a long-term threat to flora and fauna.
In addition, glass waste can contain hazardous chemicals that, if they get into water or soil, can contaminate these environments. For example, metal oxides used in the production of colored glass can be toxic to aquatic organisms and plants. Also, glass waste can contribute to the formation of microplastics, which negatively affect ecosystems.
Pity for people
Waste from the production of glass and glass products can pose a significant threat to human health. Inhaling small glass particles can lead to respiratory diseases such as chronic bronchitis or even lung cancer. Waste from the production of special types of glass containing heavy metals such as lead or cadmium is particularly dangerous. These metals can enter the human body through the respiratory tract or through contaminated water, which leads to serious poisoning and other diseases.
It is also worth considering that improperly processed glass waste can cause physical injuries. For example, broken glass in landfills or in natural areas can cause cuts and other skin injuries. This is especially relevant for children and animals who may accidentally come across such debris.
Ways to reduce harm
Reduction of damage from glass and glassware production waste is an extremely important task for preserving the environment and human health. There are several basic methods that can help minimize the negative impact of glass waste.
- Methods of ecological management of glass and glass products production waste: use of modern technologies for collection, sorting and processing of glass waste;
- Environmental management of glass and glassware production waste: implementation of a policy of minimizing waste generation at all stages of the production process;
- Collecting, sorting, crushing and processing operations (D13) glass and glassware production waste: ensuring safe and efficient transportation of waste for further processing;
- Transportation of glass production waste and glass products: use of specialized transport that minimizes the risk of environmental damage during transportation;
- Glass recycling: transformation of glass waste into new products (R7), which reduces the need for extraction of new raw materials and reduces the amount of waste in landfills.
These methods are only part of a comprehensive approach to the management of glass and glassware production waste. It is also important to conduct educational campaigns for the population and businesses to raise awareness of the importance of proper glass waste management.
