Abstract

The world over, efforts are being made for the safe disposal through development of cost-effective technologies to convert fast growing solid waste into useful products. In India, one such solid waste causing concern is the automobile windshield waste. The main sources of waste are automobile windshield manufacturers, dismantlers, recyclers, processors, etc. Automobile windshield waste emanating from various sources is a mixture of glass, PVB, additives, etc. The glass layer is fused with the PVB plastic film. Automobile windshield plastic film cannot be separated and is also not being recycled. At present, the reclaiming of PVB materials from automobile windshield waste is not being carried out in India. It is presently being thrown in dumpsites and land fill sites. It has negative impact both on human health and environment.
