Recycled soda-lime glass-ceramics: O-I Glass PackagingRecent Research Landscape

Traditional furnace melting requires high energy and large footprints, whereas submerged combustion optimizes thermal transfer and material transport for modular glass production.

What technical problems is O-I Glass Packaging addressing in Recycled soda-lime glass-ceramics?

Crystalline phase composition instability

(2)evidences

Standard soda-lime glass-ceramics suffer from poor fracture toughness and chemical degradation when compared to specialized glass compositions.

Cullet contaminant retrieval failure

(6)evidences

Traditional glass recycling infrastructure relies on centralized processing, which incurs high transportation costs and energy waste when moving unrefined glass waste over long distances.
