I know full recycling private facilities where they separate and prepare glass,.plastic, metals and scrap stuff to burn. Glass is then sent to a regular bottle making factory. Both are middle size. The ones I know can recycle trash from about half a million people. I know one of the owners now has 6 facilities and is trying to get some licences to open more.

BTW I am crane and logistic instructor for them sometimes.

I’m looking for local solutions - probably much smaller scale than that! That sounds right for an industrial solution. Thanks for sharing.

You can just get glass, break it in pieces. Wash it and easily melt it with an homemade furnace. Then what you do is based on other abilities but there are many artisans that could do beautiful works with that glass.
