Glass Recycling Plant

Swanbank, Queensland · Glass Recycling & Resource Recovery

Vastum Engineering supplied and assisted with the integration of an IC50 Horizontal Shaft Impact Crusher as part of a glass recycling facility upgrade in Swanbank, Queensland. The IC50 forms one component of a larger glass beneficiation and recycling system that turns waste glass into cullet for reuse in circular-economy applications.

Supporting the circular economy

Glass can be recycled repeatedly without degrading its quality, and recovered glass reduces the energy required for manufacturing compared with virgin raw materials. The Swanbank project supports Queensland’s resource recovery sector by supplying a reliable stream of recycled glass suitable for reuse in manufacturing, road construction, concrete production, filtration systems and other applications.
