Even slall amounts of <br />these laterials, called contalinants, can not only da..age glass- <br />lelting furnaces and produce inferior bottles and jars; but the <br />need to reject loads of glass also can raise the cost of <br />recycling, Rietow said. <br />Anchor Glass, Shakopee, the lajor user of recycled glass <br />from recycling programs in Minnesota, has rejected lore loads of <br />glass than usual in the last several lonths because of <br />contamination. Anchor lanufactures glass jars and bottles for <br />food, beer and soft drinks using up to 50 percent recycled glass. <br />"Minnesotans have shown a strong commitlent to recycling, <br />and glass recycling is one of the success stories,. said Rietow. <br />"How it is up to all residents to ensure the future of glass <br />recycling in their cOlmunities by sorting only clear, brown and <br />green glass containers for recycling.. <br />Although the contalinants are types of glass, they melt at <br />different temperatures or contain additives that make them <br />incompatible to recycle with other glass food or beverage <br />containers. <br />Rietow said the following materials should not be placed in <br />recycling bins with glass jars and bottles: <br />Ceralics such as plates, cups and ovenware <br />Milky white bottles that resemble ceralies <br />Plate glass, window glass, lirrors and drinking glasses <br />Heat-resistant glass, such as Pyrex <br />Lead-based glass, such as crystal or TV tubes <br /> <br />OFfICE PmB. - All types of office,paperaccepted. <br />accept yellow paper due to the die 1n the paper. <br />papers, markers are fine.
