A line for processing container glass began operating in Nizhny Novgorod. The project was implemented by Istok Group for 160 million rubles. The opening took place on November 29, 2023.

In an hour, the new line can sort and process up to 15 tons of raw materials. The organization collects about 27 thousand tons of containers per year. According to the general director of the enterprise Denis Tavrov, the amount of glass that Nizhny Novgorod residents bring to eco-points is not enough and the enterprise cooperates with regional operators, including other entities.

From the eco-point, glass containers go to a new line where bottles and cans are crushed. Then the magnetic catcher removes the metal particles and the clean material enters the burat sieve, vibrating feeder and magnetic separation. The finished recyclable materials are sent to the Rusjam plant in Gorokhovets.

According to Denis Tavrov, raw glass serves as the basis for the production of many things that you may not even know about. For example, it is added to fittings used in construction and to cleaning balls.

You can make a lot out of glass, I was surprised. These include fittings and now popular balls that replace quartz sand for cleaning pools,” the publication quotes the general director of Istok Group of Companies.

Let us remind you that any Nizhny Novgorod resident can contribute to glass recycling and hand over a bottle to an eco-point. This material is recycled over a thousand and causes damage to the environment. Glass products are suitable for any size, but only in their entirety: perfume bottles, food bottles and even medicine bottles.

By the way, in terms of the number of eco-points, the Nizhny Novgorod region is among the leaders. At the end of last January, there were 53 such facilities in the region. This is more than two times more than in the Belgorod region, which took second place in this indicator.
