Dispose as an industrial waste per local requirements.

Float glass data sheet.

Annealed glass can be cut machined drilled edged and polished. It is usually color neutral and highly transparent but tints are possible too. It can be laminated toughened and is treated exactly the same as clear float glass. Float glass also called flat glass that has not been heat strengthened or tempered is annealed glass.

Chemically strengthened or chemically tempered glass and thermally heat strengthened glass will tend to fracture much the same as normal strength annealed glass and are not considered safety glazing products. Chemically strengthened or chemically tempered glass and thermally heat strengthened glass will tend to fracture much the same as normal strength annealed glass and are not considered safety glazing products. Float glass is characterized by great surface hardness but is very fragile and uv transmittant. Float glass is soda lime glass made by floating molten glass on a bed of molten tin this method gives the sheet uniform thickness and very flat smooth surfaces.

Glass and glass dust is not considered a hazardous waste under usepa rcra. Designed for applications where optimum. Material safety data sheet float and rolled flat glass section 13 disposal considerations glass and glass dust can be recycled into some new glass products and should be recycled wherever appropriate and possible. Normal strength glass also known as annealed or float glass is known to fracture into large sections with sharp edges.
