Abstract
An efficient, environmentally friendly system for cathode ray tube (CRT) disassembly and cleaning is designed and demonstrated. As such, the developed technology is capable of separating CRTs at the frit line or just below in order to achieve both high-lead and low-lead cullet output compositions. This capability extends potential secondary markets for recovered CRT glass to include architectural and construction applications by avoiding the environmental concern for leaded glass which exceed the USEPA TCLP test threshold.
