if you wanted to to have a closed loop dose it matter if you mix green, brown and clear glass to make in to new glass bottles or do they have to be sorted by colour ?
Pyrex contains chemicals that allow it to withstand very high temperatures. It therefore cannot be recycled because it melts at a different temperature to glass used in bottles and jars and Pyrex in the same stream as bottle/jar glass will mess it all up. If anything made of Pyrex gets broken, it will have to be disposed of as general rubbish and sent to landfill. Drinking glasses, window glass and mirror glass cannot be recycled for the same reason.
wow

why Pyrex? is it not glass? or does it have a different, higher melting point than normal glass?

Is It Washed ?
I can buy PVB scrap recovered from windshield recycling.
I thought window glass couldn't be recycled...
