The diagram illustrates the process of recycling wasted glass bottles.

It is
clear that there are three distinct stages in the recycling process,
beginning with the collection of unused bottles and ending with the
delivery of new bottles.
At the first stage in the process, wasted glass bottles are gathered at a
collecting point and delivered to a cleaning plant by a truck.
At the second stage, glass bottles have been washed in high- pressure
water before being categorized according to colors which normally include
clear, green and brown.
After that, the bottles have been sent to a glass factory where they are
broken into pieces.
The process continues with burning these pieces in furnaces at the
temperature of 600- 800c, and then liquid have been produced.

The recycled liquid glass and the new liquid glass from other sources have
been shaped in a glass mould to produce new bottles.

At the final stage, new bottles have been transported to supermarkets


where the products are ready for sale.
