Lithium Battery Recycling, especially glass food and beverage containers, can be recycled over and over again. In the United States in 2018, 12.3 million tons of glass were generated, 31.3 percent of which was recycled. Making new glass from recycled glass is typically cheaper than using raw materials. Most curbside recycling programs accept different glass colors and types mixed together and then sort the glass at the recovery facility.
