Kedrick Ryan :
I’d assume they melt it down and reform glass bottles

When we had glass pop bottles we returned them to the store. Then the same truck that delivered full bottles to sell, took the empties with them back to the filling plant. Truck was already going there, just some extra weight. Offset by less garbage in the garbage truck going to landfill

It’s not feasible. When you consider the lifecycle management costs of glass vs single use plastics, it’s not feasible. But it does make people feel better even though it uses much more fossil fuels

Why don’t you just refill it?

Back in the 70s and before - every town had a bottling plant. You just took them back there and dropped them off.

You spend more on "reusable"/"refillable" bottle on the front end, and the profit comes from the vast majority of those bottles that don't get returned or enter the regular recycling stream

I think in some places you pay a deposit when purchasing and if you take the bottles to a location you get the deposit back based on bottles return . So you will take deposits coupon toward more h2o

The system is low loss on a material level. Any low loss system can be made highly efficient over time.

There is study for reusable cup.. which requires it to be used 20-100 times for breakeven in terms of environmental impact

Its probably been closed for 25 years but this reminds me of the soda bottler. They had a route mostly convenience stores and pizza places. They dropped of full ones and picked up the empties

I’m an engineer in the plastic bottling industry. You’re correct, glass is not economically viable mainly due to the high energy consumption to produce it, ironically making it unenviromental.

Almost like we should just run it through pipelines to your house

Economics and env science major: it’s a net 0. It costs as much to make as it does to offset plastic waste. But that net 0 is still better than costing the env more than it does to make (plastics).

bass bottles being reused in any way is better for the environment, cost efficient negative, this is why getting glass bottles of milk is more expensive because of the cleaning process and shipping co

Sadly, you have to pick economics OR environment, you don’t get both, at least not at this point

Aesthetics. We seem to forget that bottled water is a luxury item when compared to tab water and filtered well water.

Does it cost more than the plastic bottles? Yes. Them both are same economics wise. No difference. Just the sales will be more as people will be attracted to no plastic bottles now.

From a financial and resource consumption perspective, single use is better which is why we moved in that direction. From a health and reusability perspective, glass is better. Pick your poison.
